Fix: handle scipy failures due to renaming of scipy.sparse modules in v1.8

[connortann]

Fixes the unit tests, and closes #5

Changes:

• Handle renaming of scipy.sparse submodules in scipy v1.8
• Slightly more verbose stderr in tests

After this change is in, it would be great to have a release if possible.

Thanks @connortann -- I'll put out a release out with this.

v0.0.8 released on PyPI now.

[connortann]

@paulbkoch that's great! Would you be able to make a release on conda-forge as well?

I noticed on the feedstock repo there no auto-update Pull Request. On the current migrations page, it looks like the update to v0.0.8 has hit an error:

https://conda-forge.org/status/#current_migrations

2.00 attempts - The recipe did not change in the version migration, a URL did not hash, or there is jinja2 syntax the bot cannot handle!

Please check the URLs in your recipe with version '0.0.8' to make sure they exist!

We also found the following errors:

 - could not hash URL template 'https://pypi.io/packages/source/{{ name[0] }}/{{ name }}/slicer-{{ version }}.tar.gz'

I'm not an owner of the feedstock repo. I think only Scott is, last I looked.

If you end up getting access, can you also add me as a maintainer of the feedstock in case we take a dependency on slicer in the future for InterpretML.

[paulbkoch]

You know what, I'll ping Scott and ask him.

[paulbkoch]

Pinged Scott and asked him to add both of us @connortann as maintainers of the slicer feedstock.

[paulbkoch]

Hi @connortann -- We're both maintainers for the slicer feedstock now. Do you want to take up the release from there?

[connortann]

Thanks! I'll take a look. I'm admittedly not particularly experienced with conda feedstocks but shall have a go getting the recipe updated.

Talking of maintainers, please do let me know if you'd be interested in becoming a maintainer of shap: shap/shap#3559

[paulbkoch]

Ok, I'll put out a release then. It's kind of a weird system that conda-forge uses, but I'm familiar with it.

[paulbkoch]

Thanks @connortann -- I think I'll pass on being a shap maintainer for now, but I'll let you know if anything changes in the future. I've got my hands pretty full at the moment since I'm still maintaining the interpret repo, and have more recently become involved in Scott's new Guidance project https://github.com/guidance-ai/guidance/

[paulbkoch]

Hi @connortann -- Slicer v0.0.8 is on conda-forge.
