[oi-dev] Numpy - upgrade for Python 3.X

[Nona Hansel]

Hello,




I'm thinking about updating numpy since we have it just for Python 2.7. But 
before doing any changes, I wanna consult some things for having a clearer 
view of what to do.




First, when I run 





pkg search -H -r -o pkg.name 'depend:require:library/python/numpy' 





I get: 


library/python-2/numpy




which tells me that there are no packages with numpy as a dependency, right?




Second, the newest version of numpy https://github.com/numpy/numpy/releases 
supports Python 3.7. and 3.9. Is that okay? I believe it is because Python 
3.5. doesn't have numpy today anyway and according to this web https://
endoflife.date/python security support for Python 3.5. has ended 10 months 
ago.




I assume I can start working on it on Monday but it won't be finished any 
time soon - the Makefile looks very complicated to me.




Thank you for your insights. Any tips about this upgrade would be much 
appreciated.




Best regards,

Nona
