This PR

• [x] upgrades to anaconda=2024.02
• [x] upgrades GitHub action workflow versions to latest

• [x] ERROR: No matching distribution found for interpolation==2.2.4 is causing an issue with the newer version of numba==0.59 https://github.com/EconForge/interpolation.py/issues/110

@mmcky Numba is not used directly in the notes as far as I know, so we can probably get away with removing the pinned version from the environment

[mmcky]

thanks @doctor-phil -- oh I see numba == 0.56.4 which should actually work. I think when I updated to anaconda=2024.02 the pins are incompatible due to the number of downgrades?

ERROR: No matching distribution found for interpolation==2.2.4

@mmcky seems like you're right.

[mmcky]

@doctor-phil let's wait on https://github.com/EconForge/interpolation.py/pull/112 and then re-run with a new pin

[mmcky]

@doctor-phil it looks like the pip pins are too much for the new 2024 anaconda distribution -- probably too many downgrades. I will leave this open but let me know if I can help in any way.

[doctor-phil]

@mmcky there are a lot of downgrades. But I'm actually not sure if numba or interpolations are used anywhere

[mmcky]

@doctor-phil is there a reason for such a restrictive build environment? Can we relax the version pins?

[doctor-phil]

@mmcky we can relax some of them I think, these are the pins that I put in place in #225 to avoid the constant build failures due to third-party package upgrades.

Closing this as merged in #265
