Issue with the gradient function

I am working with Julia v1.6.7 and trying to execute this code:

W = rand(2, 5)
b = rand(2)
linear(x) = W * x .+ b
grads = gradient(() -> sum(linear(x)), Params([W, b]))

but I receive the error:

MethodError: no method matching back!(::Float64)
Closest candidates are:
back!(::Any, ::Any; once) at C:\Users\choud\.julia\packages\Tracker\tdXqL\src\back.jl:74
back!(::Tracker.TrackedReal; once) at C:\Users\choud\.julia\packages\Tracker\tdXqL\src\lib\real.jl:15
back!(::Tracker.TrackedArray) at C:\Users\choud\.julia\packages\Tracker\tdXqL\src\lib\array.jl:68

Does this have to do anything with the version of my Julia

Reproduce the example with Julia v1.6.7, then start with the reported frames in Tracker/src/back.jl and ZygoteTrackerExt.jl, especially the back! calls. Compare the behavior with the supported Julia and dependency versions; done means identifying the compatibility or usage cause and documenting a confirmed resolution.
