Package: pyxplot Version: 0.9.2-10 Severity: important Dear all,
pyxplot defines autopkgtest and currently blocks new TeX Live packages, the sole reason being that pyxplot is unable to interpret new dvi specials: file 'examples/ex_linestyles.ppl':103: Warning: ignoring unhandled DVI special string header=l3backend-dvips.pro This is a new special introduced with recent LaTeX, see https://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2020-February/044737.html and the whole thread. The whole point of this bug report is that the warning shipped out is innocent, but blocks TeX Live packages, and thus are to be honest a PITA. Please either disable these broken autopkgtests, or fix the package to not emit warnings on these specials.
