#17 cannot import 'gcd' from 'fractions'

[Anonymous]

Hi!

Thanks for developing and maintaining cif2cell -- it's great :)

I just installed cif2cell while building CASTEP (in which case cif2cell comes via pip, right?) and got this error while trying to run cif2cell:

ImportError: cannot import name 'gcd' from 'fractions' (/home/jks/miniconda3/lib/python3.9/fractions.py)

Searching a bit I found this:

fractions.gcd(a, b) has been deprecated in favor of math.gcd(a, b) since Python 3.5 and has been removed in Python 3.9

I'm not sure if the latest version has already been switched to importing gcd from math, but I thought I'd flag it here in case you hadn't come across it already.

Best,
Kane
