[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#899205: python-cogent: Test suite fails with latest matplotlib

[Andreas Tille]

Package: python-cogent
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org

The package fails to build with latest matplotlib which became
obvious in the CI report[1].  It fails as well when building the
package.

The issue is reported upstream.[2]

Kind regards,

      Andreas.
