Importing ridgeplot fails with scipy 1.14.1 with "symbol not found in flat namespace '_npy_cabs'"

[cduvallet]

This is more of an FYI for visibility than an issue that needs action, but importing ridgeplot fails when using scipy 1.14.1 ("symbol not found in flat namespace '_npy_cabs'")

Issue has been raised with scipy maintainers: scipy/scipy#21434

I'm on Mac OS 14.6.1, Python 3.10.14. Downgrading scipy solved the issue:

pip install --upgrade scipy==1.14.0

This issue is fixed in statsmodels==0.14.3, see statsmodels/statsmodels#9333

Thanks @cduvallet for reporting the issue and @nickodell for referencing the relevant issue on statsmodels.

Since the problem seems to be which statsmodels==0.14.2, I have removed it as a valid dependency in #198 :

A new released has been published to PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/ridgeplot/0.1.26/

For anyone landing here looking for a solution, just upgrade to the latest version of ridgeplot:

pip install -U ridgeplot

or lock to the latest version:

pip install ridgeplot==0.1.26
