MacOS 10.15.5  
neo4J Desktop v 1.4.5

I created a neo4j database (v 4.2.4) to test graph embeddings.  
Using the PlugIns tab I loaded APOC 4.2.0.4 loaded fine. However, GDS Library did not load as i received this message.

```auto
No compatible version found.

```

This is odd since in the neo4J GDS Library documentation, the neo4j grpah database version 4.2.4 is compatible with GDS Library 1.5.x  
It does not seem so in this case.

A workaround to resolve the neo4J Desktop - GDS Library non-integration issue is to download GDS 1.5.x manually, install in the associated Desktop Project/plugins folder and make the appropriate change to the .conf file.

My hope is that neo4j will fix the "friction points" with neo4j desktop.

It should be fixed now 🙂
