[BUG] ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'IPython'

fastprogress>=1.1.0

/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.14/x64/lib/python3.10/site-packages/fastprogress/__init__.py:2: in <module>

    from IPython.display import display,HTML,Markdown
E   ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'IPython'

The package requires IPython, but it does not install it.

It looks like the dependency on IPython moved from an optional, notebook-only path to an unconditional hard dependency introduced in fastprogress > 1.0.5 on this line. Originally in 1.0.5, the IPython import was guarded by a try-except on this line.

it sounds like this makes IPython an undeclared, yet required package for fastprogress>=1.1.0 to function. Why has AnswerDotAI not decided to move on this and update their requrements? Why should anyone use a package that puts solving their bugs on loyal downstream users like intake/intake-esm ?

@AnswerDotAI intake/intake-esm#773 intake/intake-esm#770 NOAA-GFDL/fre-cli#542 and NOAA-GFDL/CatalogBuilder#142 are all weird things to try and work around this problem
