Oops.
I thought that it wouldn't try using sphinx when not building doc
packages. But apparently being listed in "dh --with" counts as being
used.
I wonder if it's better to filter sphinxdoc out of the dh line, install
sphinx-common, or just always install python3-sphinx?
I have some ideas of what to do, I should be able to fix this soon.

I don't know what was wrong with pandas & datetime. I was putting off
/ hoping someone else would log into a porterbox to try to figure out
what's actually wrong.
As for nose, python{,3}-nose is listed a build-depends <!nocheck>? Why
is it failing on importing nose? it should either be there or it
shouldn't be running tests?
