howdy test crashes with NumPy 2.x due to scalar indexing
Author: mdj2812Created Aug 10, 2026Updated Aug 10, 2026
Description
sudo howdy test crashes on systems using NumPy 2.x.
Error:
IndexError: invalid index to scalar variable.
The issue happens in cli/test.py:
hist_total = int(sum(hist)[0]) value_perc = float(value[0]) / hist_total * 100
NumPy 2.x returns scalar values here instead of indexable arrays.
Environment:
- CachyOS
- howdy-git r592.d3ab993
- Python ...
- NumPy 2.5.2
