We do not need to apply the patch in the series file but as I said it
might make sense to forward it upstream.

I have answered Peter Cock several times which is documented in the
thread

   https://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2014/03/msg00014.html

but never received any private or public answer.  What contact are
you using?

I can confirm this.  I have no idea about reportlab and whether it might
be possible in the tests to exchange those tests by free ones or whether
its just a missing build-depends.

Sure!  But since you said you are running the tests manually:  The
autopkgtest is based on a script you could also run manually.  See for
example here

Kind regards
