Dear maintainer(s), Earlier this month, src:statsmodels was removed from testing because its Build-Depends have unresolved RC bugs. src:sphinx-gallery at the time was *not* removed because it's a key package *and* has annotated binaries from src:sphinx-gallery as <!nocheck>, see also [1]. This should mean that src:sphinx-gallery could drop those build dependencies (at the price of no or limited testing). I'm going to hint sphinx-gallery through for now, but either please drop the tests that require statmodels binaries now or keep an eye on the situation and drop them later when it takes too long to get the statsmodels situation fixed.

Hi, I was made aware of a bug in this bug report. The Build-Depends is annotated with <!nodoc> instead of <!nocheck>. Paul
Hi Paul, None of the mentioned packages are in the key set currently. So I guess you can just remove your hint and close this bug. Then #1141040 will also autoremove sphinx-gallery. I.e., I do not think this is a bug in sphinx-gallery. Thanks, Bastian
Hi Bastian, Hmm, I see `Build-Depends: python3-statsmodels <!nodoc>` in sphinx-gallery. statsmodels has been removed from testing, am I missing something ? Maybe I don't understand what you mean by "key set"? From what I can see, there's a bunch of r-* packages that got removed from testing, which caused statsmodels to be removed from testing. PS: seems like Rebecca (in CC) is actively working on statsmodels, hopefully we will get it back soon. Cheers! Chris
Hi Bastian, OK, I failed to read your message properly. The description in #1141040 makes perfect sense now I looked at that bug. Apologies for the noise. Cheers! Chris
Hi Bastian, Indeed, very recently sphinx-gallery was removed from the key package set. My hint is already long gone, right after sphinx-gallery migrated. Why? No, because the autoremoval script isn't aware that the autoremoval of sphinx-gallery at the time didn't happen. And because bug 1141040 according to the bts only affects unstable, autoremoval doesn't kick in. This bug is about spinx-gallery not being build-able (in testing), which is still true. Paul
