install numpy==1.16.6 causing weird issues through pip

[MikeTam1021]

Tried to install this both on my local machine (a Mac) and on my work device (Windows HVD), got similar errors with this version of numpy breaking the build. It may be advisable to update other versions of dependencies for a similar reason. (possibly common dependencies with dependencies?)

btw, ended up installing with --no-deps and did any unfulfilled dependencies myself. It seems to work fine.

Thank you @MikeTam1021, we will consider relaxing the versions to major only.

@MikeTam1021 Which versions ultimately worked for you?

[MikeTam1021]

I am running numpy version 1.18.5, and have not gotten any problems when simply running the notebooks in examples.
