Description

The current setup.py lists:

    install_requires=["numpy>=1.0.0"],
    tests_require=["scipy>=1.0.0"],
    setup_requires=["numpy>=1.20.0"],

This means pip will try to install the current version on lapjv even if numpy is older than 1.20. It will build against numpy 1.20, install it in your environment with older numpy, and import lapjv will fail with:

RuntimeError: module compiled against API version 0xe but this version of numpy is 0xd
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

Please sync install_requires with setup_requires as building with one version and running with another does NOT work.

Research direction

Start in setup.py and compare the install_requires, tests_require, and setup_requires entries named in the issue. Align the runtime dependency with the build dependency, then verify that installation and importing lapjv work with an older NumPy version.
