Description

  • Transform: #530
  • Transform: new problem with AD and AxisArrays
  • BaseKernels: #528
  • BaseKernels: #546
  • Deprecation warnings: #529

The BaseKernels failures on master can be traced back to moving ChainRules from 1.52.0 to 1.53.0. I think some weird interaction betwen ChainRules and Zygote pullbacks is at play.
The upside is that they are resolved by using https://github.com/JuliaStats/Distances.jl/pull/246.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the master failures listed for Transform, AxisArrays, and BaseKernels, comparing behavior with ChainRules 1.52.0 and 1.53.0. Check whether the change from Distances.jl PR #246 resolves the remaining failures; done means the affected checks pass without the reported pullback or deprecation problems.
