matplotlib 3.0 was recently uploaded to Debian unstable. This version requires
Python 3 and hence the package python-matplotlib was removed. Sagemath still
uses Python 2 and I don't think there is any chance to change that before the
buster freeze. Hence I think the only way forward is to upload matplotlib 2.2.3
as a separate source package to provide the Python 2 package python-matplotlib.
All other RC bugs of sagemath are fixed in git, this is the bug preventing an
upload.
Best,
Tobias

Bug is fixed because python-matplotlib is still in Debian (now in the source
package matplotlib2). The bug in that package causing the confusion (missing
matplotlibrc file) was since fixed.
