`import deeplabcut` fails inside `scipy`

[HugoStrand]

Dear all,

I have built the Docker image

git clone https://github.com/MMathisLab/Docker4DeepLabCut2.0
cd Docker4DeepLabCut2.0
docker image build -t deep_lab_cut .
docker run -it deep_lab_cut /bin/bash

and have tried some basic things on the command line. Doing

root@46e8194c5958:~# export DLClight=True
root@46e8194c5958:~# ipython
Python 3.6.3 (default, Oct  6 2017, 08:44:35) 
Type 'copyright', 'credits' or 'license' for more information
IPython 6.2.1 -- An enhanced Interactive Python. Type '?' for help.

In [1]: import deeplabcut

Gives an import error inside of scipy trying to get a feature from numpy, see below.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

I seems like bumping up the scipy version in the container might help, https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/17398.

Best regards, Hugo

DLC loaded in light mode; you cannot use any GUI (labeling, relabeling and standalone GUI)

Any updates regarding this issue? I'm having this identical problem as well! Same system, error codes, and versions of python, tensorflow, and numpy.

[gpwakeford]

Hey @HugoStrand, I pip installed a different version of numpy, as recommended here #26 however now I get a different error.

Any help here would be great.

[gpwakeford]

Ugh, so sorry y'all (I'm obviously very new here to python and linux distributions). I wasn't setting "export DLClight=True" before python. That seems to have fixed it for me (for now)!

in DeepLabCut 2.1.6 numpy is pinned to 1.16.4; so create a new image and this should go away...
