Dear Adrian, this bug has already been fixed in 0.17.1-2, which is waiting for sponsorship on Debian mentors.
https://mentors.debian.net/package/stimfit/ The failing test tried to run `stimfit --help`, which initializes the wx/GTK application and therefore fails in the headless ci.debian.net environment. In 0.17.1-2 I replaced that test with a headless-safe test. The `python3-stfio` import autopkgtest remains unchanged.
