Hi Alexandre

The only user of bumps in Debian is sasview and their releases tend to 
be coordinated. I tend to avoid upgrading them in Debian independently 
of each other.

However SasView 6 is still some way off and will be even further off in 
Debian due to its dependency on pyside6 (which is a beast that is 
half-packaged and ftbfs still)

I'll look at whether old-sasview and new-bumps will be happy with each 
other. Most of the 0.9.x releases of bumps are compatibility patches for 
numpy/scipy/matplotlib that we're already carrying as patches in the 
Debian package anyway.

thanks for your contribution to removing six!
Stuart
