Episcanpy is incompatible with scanpy 1.4.5post3

[le-ander]

Hi Anna,

I just wanted to try out the shiny new episcanpy version. Unfortunately I found that it is incompatible with the current scanpy realease. This is because of conflicting requirements.

Episcanpy 0.1.8:

scipy<=1.3
h5py!=2.10.0 

Scanpy 1.4.5.post3:

scipy>=1.3
h5py>=2.10.0

I wonder if the version pinning of episcanpy could just be adapted to the scanpy one or whether this actually requires updates to the code.

Would be great if episcanpy would soon be compatible with scanpy again :)

I'm under the impression, that since you removed the version checks from the code, these pinnings are no longer required and episcanpy should work with the latest anndata, h5py and scipy. Or do you see any particular reasoon why that should not be the case?

If you also think that this should be fine, a new release without these version pinnings would be great, so I can create a new container with all compatible anndata 0.7, scanpy and episcanpy for our group. Thanks :)
