[Python-modules-team] Bug#961468: pyzmq FTCBFS: please reduce Build-Depends

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: pyzmq
Version: 18.1.1-3
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: cross-satisfiability

pyzmq fails to cross build from source, because its Build-Depends are
not satisfiable. Since cross builds usually don't run tests, the nocheck
build profile is a very good way to trim Build-Depends. Please consider
applying the attached patch to make a lot of Build-Depends optional
using <!nocheck>. I verified that a nocheck build produces bit-identical
artifacts to a full build.
