WARNING (aesara.configdefaults) when importing penaltyblog

[nachimbol]

I'm quite desperate. I'm trying to work with this library, but after installing it, just importing the library launches this error. What can I do? Any guesses?
This is the code:

import sys
sys.path.append("../")

import penaltyblog as pb

This is the error:

WARNING (aesara.configdefaults): g++ not available, if using conda: conda install m2w64-toolchain
WARNING (aesara.configdefaults): g++ not detected! Aesara will be unable to compile C-implementations and will default to Python. Performance may be severely degraded. To remove this warning, set Aesara flags cxx to an empty string.

Just importing penaltyblog is enough to the error to appear, I don't know what to do or how to deal with it.

Hello - sounds like this is a problem with version mismatches on your system rather than a problem with penaltyblog. pymc has some quite strict dependencies and you need to make sure you have the correct version of numpy so I'd suggest starting off by creating a new virtual environment and installing penaltyblog into that.

Had this issue myself today. Resolved by install aesara with latest version. (i.e. once penaltyblog installed, I manually ran pip install aesara --upgrade)
