Bug#1094417: pandas: test_frame_setitem_dask_array_into_new_col fails

[Rebecca N. Palmer]

Package: python3-pandas,python3-dask
Version: 2.2.3+dfsg-6,2024.12.1+dfsg-1

The pandas test test_frame_setitem_dask_array_into_new_col is failing in 
Salsa; it looks like assigning a dask array to a DataFrame used to make 
a copy and now does not.

I'm not sure yet whether this is an actual problem - I'm mostly opening 
this bug so I don't forget about it.
