Hi Yaroslav, I wanted to give #802412 a try since its blocking one of the Debian Med tools from migrating to testing. Unfortunately Vcs fields are wrong (the repository does not exist at Github) and it should be rather on alioth if you want team uploads.
Just for the record: I tried to build seaborn 0.7.1 and was also running into tast suite failures. Did you contacted upstream about this? Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
