Thanks, however it turns out that this will unfortunately not work for me: from astropys POV, pytest seems to be broken in versions 3.7 - 3.10; see https://github.com/astropy/astropy/issues/8177 I also observed diverse failures on other (astropy dependent) packages with 3.10. Which basically means that I need to switch off the tests, unless pytests upstream provides a bugfixed 3.X version. However, it seems that I need to start with the removal of the Python 2 astropy ecosystem, which may be in any case not the worst decision. Personally, I like to put pressure to move towards Python 3. Cheers Ole
