AttributeError for `np.bool` in Numpy `1.24.0`

[facundo-lezama]

The new release of Numpy 1.24.0 has some expired deprecations among which there is np.bool. This is causing the following error:

/home/runner/work/norfair/norfair/.tox/mot-py39/lib/python3.9/site-packages/motmetrics/mot.py:178: FutureWarning: In the future `np.bool` will be defined as the corresponding NumPy scalar. (This may have returned Python scalars in past versions.
  oids_masked = np.zeros_like(oids, dtype=np.bool)

AttributeError: module 'numpy' has no attribute 'bool'

Is it possible to do a release fixing this? I believe #155 already addresses this issue.

@facundo-lezama thanks for noting. I've merged #155 to develop and it passes as expected https://github.com/cheind/py-motmetrics/actions/runs/3766789221

[facundo-lezama]

Thanks for the quick response! Is it possible to release these changes to PyPI?

[cheind]

yes, after the holidays. In the mean time you can install via

pip install git+https://github.com/cheind/py-motmetrics.git

Happy holidays!

I've uploaded v1.4.0 to PyPi

[facundo-lezama]

That's great! Thanks for being so quick, that really helped us.
