Unable to create x86 host Python virtual environment due to incompatible NumPy version

[FABallemand]

Describe the bug

When creating an x86 host Python virtual environment, dependency installation fails because the requirements specify numpy==2.4.6.

This version of NumPy is not compatible with Python 3.10, even though Python 3.10 is listed as a supported version. As a result, it is not possible to successfully create the virtual environment using the documented setup.

Steps/Code to reproduce bug

$ python3 --version
Python 3.10.15

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate

$ pip3 install .
