#1512 was merged recently as a fix for that specific issue, but it doesn't necessarily address all the potential issues with NumPy 1.26, since the CI tests don't cover that version yet.

[Ben Mares]

Ah, very nice. I wanted to fix the feedstock and didn't check for duplicates.

No problem; it's probably best to bound the version for now, as you did in the feedstock.

[Ben Mares]

Ah, so to be clear <1.26 should apply also in 2.9.2?

[Ben Mares]

If so, should probably be added to pyproject.toml

True. I might have time to set up the tests in CI soon, in which case bounding the version might not be necessary.
