[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#995689: python-reportlab breaks autopkgtest of python-biopython

Hi Maintainers

The recent upload of python-reportlab/3.5.67-2 causes the autopkgtests
of python-biopython/1.78+dfsg-5 to fail [1]:

test_GenomeDiagram ... FAIL
test_GraphicsBitmaps ... skipping. Error: Install ReportLab's renderPM
module if you want to create bitmaps with Bio.Graphics.

I noticed that python-biopython already has a Recommends on
python3-renderpm.  One solution would be to bump this to a Depends.
Alternatively, python3-renderpm could be added to python3-reportlab as
a Depends.

Regards
Graham
