Hello,
Package FTBFS on big-endian builds:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=pandas&suite=sid
With following message:
======================================================================
FAIL: test_to_records (pandas.tests.test_categorical.TestCategoricalAsBlock)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

---------------------------------------------------------------------
With the patch attached package builds successfully on both MIPS big-endian and
little-endian.
Patch is changing test_categorical to work with native endian instead of
little-endian.
Same patch is available upstream:
https://github.com/pydata/pandas/pull/10438
Could you please consider including this patch?
Thank you!
Regards,
Jurica
