Bump numpy to >= 1.16 #4259
Comments
I love bleeding edge as much as the next person, but how does this affect things for popular distros? Would they be stuck on older versions of skimage due to this? For example, I think ubuntu 19.10 is packaging Numpy 1.16.2 and skimage 0.14.2 for python3. |
1.16.x has been published in Jan. 2019. If we take 6 months to prepare the next release, the min req. version will be out for more than a year. |
Right, that makes sense. But I'm more of the opinion that we should try to have more rolling release ;) |
@sciunto how does this fit in with the NEP-29 deprecation policy? Is it more aggressive or basically implementing the policy? |
It depends when we release the next version, 1.15 is supposed to be unsupported in Jul 23, 2020. It doesn't look so aggressive. |
It seems a little aggressive for me: Using: numpy/numpy#15173 https://gist.github.com/hmaarrfk/0e2a01d57f07f55eb99d177da92691b6 I found that bumping to 1.16, even if we are to release in June 2020, would mean that we are only supporting versions in the last 18 months: |
NumPy was bumped to 1.16.5 in #5016 |
Description
In the TODO list, several tasks are about numpy >= 1.16. This version opens up the possibility to use linspace, logspace... functions in nD. As it is a goal to get nD algorithm in scikit-image, I propose to bump numpy for our next release to facilitate future contributions.
I assign this task to myself.
