Hi guys,

I'm facing some problems with our CI and I need some light. It's been a while that I'm having some enigmatic conflicts, check here one example.

https://gitlab.idiap.ch/bob/bob.pipelines/-/jobs/195496/raw

bdt build doesn't work at all on the CI and on my computers. I'm wondering if it's something with Numpy, because of this message at the logs:

However, if I try to install the bob.pipelines setup, everything works fine.

conda install bob-devel==2020.03.30 dask dask-jobqueue bob.extension bob.io.base -c https://www.idiap.ch/software/bob/conda/label/beta/ --dry-run

Can I have some light?

Thanks
