AttributeError: Module 'scipy' has no attribute 'empty'

[yalda1205]

Hi, I install the package using these lines: git clone https://github.com/bbalasub1/glmnet_python.git cd glmnet_python python setup.py install

and then try to import the package: import glmnet_python

but there is this error:

{ "name": "AttributeError", "message": "Module 'scipy' has no attribute 'empty'", "stack": "--------------------------------------------------------------------------- KeyError Traceback (most recent call last) File ~/venv_environments/glmnet/lib/python3.11/site-packages/scipy/init.py:137, in getattr(name) 136 try: --> 137 return globals()[name] 138 except KeyError:

KeyError: 'empty'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

AttributeError: Module 'scipy' has no attribute 'empty'" }

Could you please help me how can I solve it?

I ran into the same problem. Downgrading to scipy 1.11.0 solved it for me (e.g. pip install scipy==1.11.0)
