  • [Python-announce] NumPy 1.26.1 released

    From Charles R Harris@charlesr.harris@gmail.com to comp.lang.python.announce on Sat Oct 14 15:03:52 2023
    From Newsgroup: comp.lang.python.announce

    Hi All,

    On behalf of the NumPy team, I'm pleased to announce the release of NumPy 1.26.1. NumPy 1.26.1 is a maintenance release that fixes bugs and
    regressions discovered after the 1.26.0 release. In addition, it adds new functionality for detecting BLAS and LAPACK when building from source. Highlights are:

    - Improved detection of BLAS and LAPACK libraries for meson builds
    - Pickle compatibility with the upcoming NumPy 2.0.

    The Python versions supported by this release are 3.9-3.12. Wheels can be downloaded from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/numpy/1.26.1/>; source
    archives, release notes, and wheel hashes are available on Github <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/releases/tag/v1.26.1>. The release notes
    have documentation of the new meson functionality.
