[Numpy-discussion] ANN: NumPy 1.8.2 release candidate

[Julian Taylor]

Hello,

I am pleased to announce the first release candidate for numpy 1.8.2, a
pure bugfix release for the 1.8.x series.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.8.2rc1/

If no regressions show up the final release is planned this weekend.
The upgrade is recommended for all users of the 1.8.x series.

Following issues have been fixed:
* gh-4836: partition produces wrong results for multiple selections in
equal ranges
* gh-4656: Make fftpack._raw_fft threadsafe
* gh-4628: incorrect argument order to _copyto in in np.nanmax, np.nanmin
* gh-4613: Fix lack of NULL check in array_richcompare
* gh-4642: Hold GIL for converting dtypes types with fields
* gh-4733: fix np.linalg.svd(b, compute_uv=False)
* gh-4853: avoid unaligned simd load on reductions on i386
* gh-4774: avoid unaligned access for strided byteswap
* gh-650: Prevent division by zero when creating arrays from some buffers
* gh-4602: ifort has issues with optimization flag O2, use O1

Source tarballs, windows installers and release notes can be found at

Cheers,
Julian Taylor
