Hello
I use mule quite a bit in my ARCHER2 UM workflow but I’m struggling to get it to work properly at the moment - whenever I try to import it I get
>>> import mule
A module that was compiled using NumPy 1.x cannot be run in
NumPy 2.0.2 as it may crash. To support both 1.x and 2.x
versions of NumPy, modules must be compiled with NumPy 2.0.
Some module may need to rebuild instead e.g. with 'pybind11>=2.12'.
If you are a user of the module, the easiest solution will be to
downgrade to 'numpy<2' or try to upgrade the affected module.
We expect that some modules will need time to support NumPy 2.

raise ImportError(err.args + (msg,))
ImportError: ('numpy.core.multiarray failed to import', 'SHUMlib Packing library found, but failed to import')
I already have . /work/y07/shared/umshared/bin/rose-um-env-puma2 in my ~/.bash_profile as suggested in this thread and this has worked fine previously when running interactively and as part of cylc workflows and as part of normal batch scripts.
I understand there seems to be some sort of issue with module clashes with numpy 2, and I can keep trying to find a workaround, but I figured I may as well post here to let you know as this might be an issue with the central environment?
Have a good weekend all!

NB edit was because the title wasn’t very descriptive; I suppose I should add that I also tried loading the um and postproc modules on ARCHER2 to no avail to get mule to work.
