ANN: Mahotas 1.2.2 (maintenance release)

[Luis Pedro Coelho]

Hello list participants,

Yesterday, I released mahotas 1.2.2. This is a maintenance release,
which does not introduce any new functions.

The newer versions of numpy exposed a bug in sobel() which is now fixed.
A few functions (cwatershed, {reg,loc}{max,min}) now accept floating
point inputs (there was a check against it, but there is no reason to
check). Also, a decent error message is printed if you try to pass
float16 or float128 arrays to mahotas functions (previously it failed in
mysterious ways).

*

Use "pip install mahotas --upgrade" to upgrade.

On Linux, conda users can also use::

conda install -c https://conda.binstar.org/luispedro mahotas

Mahotas
-------

Mahotas is a computer vision library. Algorithms operate on numpy
arrays, but are implemented in C++ for speed (efficiency is a major
concern of mahotas).

It includes algorithms such as watershed, morphological operations,
feature computation (Haralick features, Zernike moments, and SURF), and
other tidbits.
