Hi,

when updating pandas in conda, i'm asked to downgrade numpy.

Jiris-MacBook-Pro:~ u$ conda update pandas
Fetching package metadata ...........
Solving package specifications: .

Package plan for installation in environment /Users/jirikulik/miniconda3:

The following packages will be UPDATED:

    pandas: 0.20.3-py36hd6655d8_2 defaults --> 0.21.0-py36hd8e0503_0 defaults

The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:

    numpy:  1.13.3-py36h2cdce51_0 defaults --> 1.9.3-py36h60773e1_3  defaults

Problem description

When updating pandas, conda asks me to downgrade numpy to version 1.9.3. Is it intentional? I updated everything (via conda update --all) without any issues, pandas is the only package that didn't update to the latest version.

I'm on macOS 10.13.1 if that matters, output of pd.show_versions() pasted below.

Thank you Jiri

I think this is a newest conda issue. https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/6260

you can pin numpy=1.13 to ameliorate (or use conda=4.2.16)
