'ImportError while importing APLpy

I keep getting this import error whenever I try to import APLpy in iPython after astropy.io.fits. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling all my Python packages and libraries. This error is causing kernel panic and I keep getting the login warning "You restarted your computer because of a problem".

This was fixed just a few days ago as of writing, and released as part of v2.1.0: https://github.com/aplpy/aplpy/commit/e8c72f04c0a897fd2dc43bad0fb6eeab0c413768

It was just a slight incompatibility with Astropy 5.0.
