problem with NumPy 2.0

[jvollme]

Hi, i installed the tool as per instructions. Since no specific version for numpy or plotly is given, i installed the respective newest versions.
Turns out that the currecnt pip version of rpe is not compatible with numpy2.0.
when running rpe plot i get the following error:

Plotting genome with bin width  1000 bases and pct ID height  0.5
Traceback (most recent call last):

maybe you could state the explicit versions of plotly and numpy that your current build was tested against?

I also ran into this today using the pip install and pip install numpy==1.26.0 was able to downgrade it to a usable version with Python 3.12.7

I can confirm that it worked.

@KGerhardt This should be solved in the current codebase, can you please produce a new release so pip install pulls the updated code?
