h5py error when installing MHKiT on clean install

[b0ndman]

Describe the bug:

When installing a fresh install of MHKiT on a fresh environment, which includes all dependencies, this error is shown. Installation is with pip. This is before any other dependencies like h5py are installed and dependencies are installed according to mhkit

UserWarning: h5py is running against HDF5 1.12.1 when it was built against 1.12.2, this may cause problems
  '{0}.{1}.{2}'.format(*version.hdf5_built_version_tuple)
Warning! ***HDF5 library version mismatched error***
The HDF5 header files used to compile this application do not match
the version used by the HDF5 library to which this application is linked.
Data corruption or segmentation faults may occur if the application continues.
This can happen when an application was compiled by one version of HDF5 but
linked with a different version of static or shared HDF5 library.
You should recompile the application or check your shared library related
settings such as 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'.
You can, at your own risk, disable this warning by setting the environment
variable 'HDF5_DISABLE_VERSION_CHECK' to a value of '1'.
Setting it to 2 or higher will suppress the warning messages totally.
Headers are 1.12.2, library is 1.12.1

To Reproduce:

From fresh install with no dependencies previously installed:

import mhkit as mhk

print('hello world')

[ssolson]

@b0ndman are you running Py 3.7?

[b0ndman]

I normally run Py 3.9. There could be some funk going on with the IDE I'm using (pycharm) but my coworker was seeing a similar error. I'm not sure what version they're running

[ssolson]

Windows and Py 3.7 were having issues in our integration tests. I temporarily fixed it by switching to conda install in #181. My plan is to close the current PRs and circle back to get pip working with 3.7 and windows, or if I can not then either deprecate 3.7 or switch our installation instructions to use conda instead of pip.

[b0ndman]

I was able to reproduce the error with py 3.10 and latest update of pip 22.2.2. I'll try switching to conda instead of pip

[ssolson]

We currently do not support 3.10. That is also on the To Do not mentioned in the previous plan for CI testing..

[b0ndman]

I tried a clean environment with py 3.9 and was still getting the error with pip. Conda & Pycharm weren't talking to each other so I reverted back to mhkit v0.3.

[b0ndman]

temporary fix is to force h5py version to 3.6.0 before installing the rest of mhkit.
