Plotly.jl is holding back updates of PlotlyBase and PlotlyJS

[truedichotomy]

With Plotly.jl v0.4.0 installed, PlotlyBase is stuck on v0.5.4 and PlotlyJS is stuck on 0.14.1.
When I remove Plotly, PlotlyBase is able to upgrade to v0.8.18 and PlotlyJS goes to v0.18.8.

Is there any reason for holding the versions back for PlotlyBase and PlotlyJS?

I'm running Julia 1.7rc1. The same is true for Julia 1.6.3.

Hmm, I would guess compat bounds need to be updated here. Are you using Plotly.jl functionality (which is only the ability to upload to plotly's online service, chart studio)?

I'm mainly using Plotly backend for Plots but that only requires PlotlyBase I think. So technically I don't need Plotly installed personally. I just found out the version lag after I removed Plotly and did a Pkg update.

Thanks for reporting. For now I would reccomend keeping Plotly out of our packages. We'll have to come up with a proper fix soon though!
