[Debian-pan-maintainers] Bug#1096262: xrayutilities: fails tests with scipy 1.15: cannot import name 'derivative' from 'scipy.misc'

[Drew Parsons]

Source: xrayutilities
Version: 1.7.8-2
Severity: normal

xrayutilities is failing tests with scipy 1.15 from experimental,
evidently due to use of deprecated API.

Version 1.7.10 has been released upstream and should be compatible.
