Needed to downgrade numpy and reinstall libllvmlite & numba

I tried installing vectorizers on a fresh pyenv and I got this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "vectorizers-master/vectorizers/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>

    raise OSError("Could not load shared object file: {}".format(_lib_name))
OSError: Could not load shared object file: libllvmlite.dylib

This was resolvable for me by uninstalling and reinstalling libllvmlite & numba after ensuring numpy<1.21, e.g.

pip install numpy==1.20
pip uninstall libllvmlite
pip uninstall numba
pip install libllvmlite
pip install numba

This is obviously not a big deal, but in case others bump this, maybe a ref in the README can save them a google. 🤷

Thanks. There seem to be some issues in general with numpy 1.21 and numba not quite playing together nicely. It seems to have been largely confined to Mac's as far as I know. Do you have an M1 Mac by any chance?

Regardless, thanks for the report and documenting a fix.

Nah still on intel but yes on Mac hardware.
