I don't have astropy installed and don't plan on installing it: I get a lot of "WARNING: astropy not found, will default to scipy for convolution" that I'd like to silence when I run benchopt.
Describe the solution you'd like
If the warning was of a specific class I could ignore it, or there could be a way to globally configure modopt warning level ?
