Dear everyone,

on behalf of the Numba team, I am happy to announce that Numba 0.55.2 is now available! This is a patch-release to support both NumPy 1.22 and the Apple M1 architecture (`osx-arm64`).

You may install the conda-package from the `numba` channel on [anaconda.org](http://anaconda.org/):

```auto
conda install -c numba numba=0.55.2

```

or the wheel via `pip` from PyPi:

```auto
pip install numba==0.55.2

```

You will find the release notes by pointing your browser at: [Release Notes — Numba 0.55.2+0.g2298ad618.dirty-py3.7-linux-x86\_64.egg documentation](https://numba.readthedocs.io/en/stable/release-notes.html#version-0-55-2-25-may-2022)

We hope you enjoy the release and kindly ask, that you report back any issues you encounter. Thank you for using Numba!

Thank you for the kind words. In case anyone was wondering: the “big lift” here was to integrate a native M1 into the Anaconda Build Farm so that we can build and run across all supported versions of Python and a good deal of available NumPys in an automated fashion. That is now in place and largely debugged so we can easily test `main` on an M1 during development and also easily ship both conda packages and wheels.

I have an M1 and this is surely an awesome news. Thanks to the entire team.

On a side note, I am still waiting (\>1.5yrs) for [this pull request](https://github.com/numba/numba/pull/6490) to merge someday.

Cheers!
