[CI] [conda] [xnd/label/dev] Functions don't work with xnd.array

[hameerabbasi]

gumath functions don't work on xnd.array currently.

>>> import gumath.functions as fn
>>> import xnd
>>> a = xnd.array(5.0)
>>> a
array(5.0, type='float64')
>>> fn.add(a, a, cls=xnd.array)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: invalid dtype

I did a fresh checkout of all three libraries and I cannot reproduce this:

>>> import gumath.functions as fn
>>> import xnd
>>> a = xnd.array(5.0)
>>> a
array(5.0, type='float64')
>>> fn.add(a, a, cls=xnd.array)
array(10.0, type='float64')

Same in xnd-all:

>>> import gumath.functions as fn
>>> import xnd
>>> a = xnd.array(5.0)
>>> a
array(5.0, type='float64')
>>> fn.add(a, a, cls=xnd.array)
array(10.0, type='float64')

Are the packages uploaded to conda?

[skrah]

They are, after passing the unit tests (which should hopefully catch this). I'm also getting the latest revisions from xnd/label/dev:

https://travis-ci.org/xnd-project/xnd-all/jobs/537698718#L4247

[skrah]

Weird, perhaps something like --skip-existing is broken in the upload.

[skrah]

Okay, if one builds the conda packages manually according to xnd-all/.travis.yml the example works, too.

So it looks like an upload/anaconda.org issue. I'll print the sha256sum of the packages in the next build.

[skrah]

It seems to have been "fixed" by the following steps:

1. I removed all previous dev packages from anaconda.org.

2. I cleaned all xnd related packages from miniconda3/pkgs/, which for some reason were not removed by conda-build purge xnd etc.

3. I reinstalled conda install -c xnd/label/dev gumath.

I'm not sure why it works now, because conda install has always showed the correct latest GitHub revisions when installing.

[hameerabbasi]

Yes, usually conda update —all does it but this time I needed to update them manually by specifying the name and the channel.

I’ll keep this open in case there are any update issues but my immediate issue has been resolved.

[hameerabbasi]

What’s even weirder is that I first got the packages in the environment after the last update.
