Bug#1119724: pandas: Please add python3-pyqt5 to Build-Depends for all architectures

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz]

Source: pandas
Version: 2.3.3+dfsg-2
Severity: normal
User: debian-sparc at lists.debian.org
Usertags: sparc64

Hello,

pandas currently conditonally adds python3-pyqt5 to Build-Depends in debian/control:

       python3-pyqt5 (>= 5.15.9~) [!alpha !powerpc !sparc64 !x32] <!nocheck> <!nodoc>

as python3-pyqt5 is sometimes not available on these architectures due to bugs in
other packages.

However, pandas fails to configure without python3-pyqt5 installed:

Successfully built pandas-2.3.3-cp313-cp313-linux_sparc64.whl

The number of threads have been set to 1 because problems related to threading have been reported on some sparc machine. The number of threads can be changed using the "set_num_threads" function.
ERROR: pytest-qt requires either PySide2, PySide6, PyQt5 or PyQt6 installed.
  PyQt5.QtCore: No module named 'PyQt5'
  PyQt6.QtCore: No module named 'PyQt6'
  PySide2.QtCore: No module named 'PySide2'
  PySide6.QtCore: No module named 'PySide6'

It's therefore better to remove the "[!alpha !powerpc !sparc64 !x32]" conditional
for python3-pyqt5 in Build-Depends as the package fails to build from source anyway
and it just covers up the bugs in other packages which will be worked on as well.

Thus, can you please drop this arch conditional for python3-pyqt5?

Thanks,
Adrian
