It would be possible for the PyCall build script to convert libpython etc. to a relative path if it is within the `Pkg.dir()` directory, I think.

@jdfreder, it was suggested that you are the person to ask about this. Basically, I need to replace anything in the IPython widgets code that sends a zeromq message.

@takluyver suggests that maybe I just need to patch the methods of the `CommManager` class in `IPython/kernel/comm/manager.py`.

@shashi, I agree that Interact is actually irrelevant here, now that I look at it. I definitely don't want to hack IJulia to send messages via Python. The hacking should...

I haven't had a chance to work on it. I don't think it should be very complicated; at least, not much code should be needed. The main thing is to...

We (@shashi, @travigd, and I at JuliaCon 2019) have started to put together an implementation at https://github.com/JuliaPy/PyInteract.jl … still *very* much a work in progress, but this works: 

Probably Julia and NumPy are linked to incompatible versions of MKL .... there's not much to do about this either than (a) make sure they use the same MKL versions...

When Julia is compiled with OpenBLAS, all of the BLAS symbols have a special suffix so that they don't conflict with other BLAS libraries (JuliaLang/julia#8734). We can't (easily) do this...

See also #65.

@crstnbr, doesn't Julia link the ILP64 MKL interface by default, whereas numpy uses the LP64 interface (numpy/numpy#5906)? I think you probably need to compile Julia [with `USE_BLAS64=0`](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/b475814dc54fbbd9a39f6d01424198ed66ee3fcc/Make.inc#L870) in order to...
