numba fails to be imported in Termux, aarch64, android 9

See original GitHub issue

I installed numba in Termux using the usual pip install numba and it succeeded, however trying to import it fails like this:

$ python -c "import numba"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/numba/typeconv/typeconv.py", line 6, in <module>
    from . import _typeconv
ImportError: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "PyExc_ValueError" referenced by "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/numba/typeconv/_typeconv.cpython-37m.so"...

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/numba/__init__.py", line 18, in <module>

    raise ImportError(msg)
ImportError: Numba could not be imported.
If you are seeing this message and are undertaking Numba development work, you may need to re-run:

python setup.py build_ext --inplace

(Also, please check the development set up guide http://numba.pydata.org/numba-doc/latest/developer/contributing.html.)

If you are not working on Numba development:

Please report the error message and traceback, along with a minimal reproducer
at: https://github.com/numba/numba/issues/new

If more help is needed please feel free to speak to the Numba core developers
directly at: https://gitter.im/numba/numba

Thanks in advance for your help in improving Numba!

The original error was: 'dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "PyExc_ValueError" referenced by "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/numba/typeconv/_typeconv.cpython-37m.so"...'

Note that llvmlite is installed and imports just fine:

$ pip list | grep llvm
llvmlite           0.29.0 
$ python -c "import llvmlite"
$

Oh, sorry, I should have included that info — my fault! The architecture is aarch64, the hardware is Samsung Galaxy Tab S4, running Android 9:

$ termux-info

Python is version 3.7.4 — it is part of every decent Linux system distribution, including Termux, so I didn’t have to do anything special, other than “apt install python”. And all the packages I installed via “pip install pkgname”.
