Installing "colour-hdri" on Linux fails.

[ai2ys]

When trying to install colour-hdri on Linux (local Ubuntu 20.04 installation as well as Docker image python:3.8-buster) the installation fails.

Installation of the following libraries (dependencies from the requirements.txt) fail:

• recordclass==0.12.0.1
• matplotlib==3.0.3
  (error message: ... AttributeError: module 'platform' has no attribute 'linux_distribution')

Other versions of the libraries can be installed on the systems, e.g.:

• recordclass==0.14.3
• matplotlib==3.3.3

Edit:
I just tried installing older version. The latest version that did work on Linux is v0.1.6.

Hi @ai2ys,

There is actually no strong requirements besides those given in the pyproject.toml file or the automatically generated setup.py. The requirements.txt is also automatically produced but from what my virtual environment at the time of the packaging was or whenever I update it. It should not really be used as a reliable method to install any of our packages.

Cheers,

Thomas
