Thanks, @martindurant

[martindurant]

@rjzamora : a quick and simple one, if you have a moment

[rjzamora]

One minor comment fix. Otherwise, LGTM

[jrbourbeau]

Thanks @martindurant. I think we want to trigger an upstream CI build by including a commit with test-upstream in it so we can make sure fastparquet_version > parse_version("0.8.3") is True (note you'll also want to merge main as there were some changes to fix the upstream build that were just merged)

[martindurant]

There is no release of fastparquet yet, since dask/fastparquet#818 is waiting on this PR

[jrbourbeau]

The upstream build will install fastparquet directly from main. I assumed this was using some new feature that's not yet released, but in fastparquets main branch -- is that not the case?

[martindurant]

No, I didn't even merge it; but I will now, just to ease the impasse :).
fastparquet also tests against main, of course!

[martindurant]

done

dask/array/tests/test_stats.py::test_two[ttest_1samp-kwargs2] is nothing to do with this PR
