Problem
Closes #558
Tests were failing on the macos-latest github runner (which currently runs the macos-14 M1 Mac image). The cause of this appears to be that pyqt was first being installed by conda/micromamba, then pip was uninstalling that and re-installing another pyqt. Something is wrong with the pyqt from pip, and it causes errors on M1 Mac machines.
Fix
The simplest solution is to remove
napari[all]
from therequirements-dev.txt
file, so that pip does not try to uninstall the existing version of pyqt. All the github actions tests now finish without errors.
