wrong dependency in "quantumaudio[demos]" for librosa / numba for python==3.12

[thomasehmer]

Hello, I see that you recommend Python 3.10 in the ENVIRONMENT.md - so this is only for information as it should likely work with 3.10. (while see error description below)

Just a hint, in case you need it later or want to add it in the dependencies.

When I install "quantumaudio[demos]" (or librosa for that matter) and using Python 3.12.7, I do get an error telling that the numba==0.53.1 dependency cannot be installed.

The way to fix it is to install numba without the version (or numba==0.59) first
I am using rye add numba / rye sync - but I guess it works with pip, too.

I am not sure where this can be fixed in the dependencies?

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue! I created a new conda environment to install quantumaudio[demos] and tested this. However, I wasn’t able to recreate the issue.

I have the following setup:

Python: 3.12.7
pip: 24.2
librosa: 0.10.2.post1
numpy: 2.0.2
numba: 0.60.0

I’ll investigate further to see if there are any cases or specific conditions causing this. It’s likely related to the downgrading of version requirements in librosa, as you correctly pointed out.
