Ignore DeprecationWarning for Python executables (console scripts) while importing

scikit-learn gives a lot of warnings when it is being imported. It appears I cannot wrap the imports with a suppress as in:

import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", category=DeprecationWarning)
import sklearn #Throws warning!

It's mentioned that:

python -W ignore::DeprecationWarning some_script.py

can work, but I'm interested in the case where you would run it as a console script (from being installed with setup.py):

myapp

How to suppress the warnings that users should not care about (only the library creators)?

Any of the suggested answers in How to ignore deprecation warnings in Python do not help

I even tried to add -W ignore::DeprecationWarning in the /usr/bin/myapp console script, but that does not help either.

@kabanus It's not a duplicate. They do NOT address my particular problem. As I mentioned, the warnings library does not help while importing `sklearn`, because it has to be filtered in the code of `sklearn`. So I'd appreciate it if you'd remove your downvote. It's also not possible to do `myapp -W ignore::DeprecationWarning` – PascalVKooten Jul 14 '18 at 15:11
I did not down vote. Can't you use the `warnings` library before the import? – kabanus Jul 14 '18 at 15:13
@kabanus No, I already tried. – PascalVKooten Jul 14 '18 at 15:13

Hope my edit was OK. Let's delete these comments. – kabanus Jul 14 '18 at 15:18
@kabanus Thanks for the moderation! – PascalVKooten Jul 14 '18 at 15:21
I'm afraid I cannot reproduce. What versions of Pyhon and `sklearn` are you using? I am not getting warnings. – kabanus Jul 14 '18 at 15:51
@kabanus sklearn version 0.20.dev0 with Python 3.7.0 – PascalVKooten Jul 14 '18 at 16:25
