requires numpy version 1.26.x (< 2.0) and appdirs module fix #65 #64

[sonique6784]

yfinance-cache is not compatible with numpy 2.0.
making sure numpy 1.26 is installed
also requires appdirs and zoneinfo
fix #65 and #64

[ValueRaider]

Just add a comment explaining why Numpy<2. Looks like Pandas install is hard-linked to Numpy 1

Edit: link to this: pandas-dev/pandas#59052

Please see bug #65 for all details.

Btw, I'm currently testing if Pandas has really fixed their datetime bug pandas-dev/pandas#55487

[sonique6784]

Thanks @ValueRaider. I set up a Linux docker and had the same issues:

• appdirs
• numpy < 2.0
• python >3.9

So it would be safer for everyone to add those dependencies requirements

[ValueRaider]

Comment useless so I've redone it.
