Right now we don't support the newest TensorFlow releases after the 2.15 series, initially released in November 2023 [1].
Support for TensorFlow>=2.16 is worked on [2], but it's difficult to make progress if we don't have TensorFlow>=2.16 in our CI images. And we veto it from our CI image via the
requirements.txt
mechanism.To continue, we need to temporarily disable PyMVA in the CI, such that we can include the newest TensorFlow version in our images, and then re-enable it in the PR that fixes support for the newest TensorFlow. This is what is done in this commit.
Supporting the newest TensorFlow became a bit more important now that we also have another feature besides PyMVA that uses TensorFlow: the RBatchGenerator. It would not good to hold off testing the actively-developed RBatchGenerator on newer TensorFlow versions, just because PyMVA prevents us from installing these on our CI.
