    Dear Diane, all, both dask and python-xarray have been removed
    from testing on July the 30th causing the removal of a relatively
    large stack of packages that rely on them. Both dask and, most of
    all, python-xarray are an important part of the modern Python
    scientific stack, so, IMHO, it is a real pity to have them out of
    testing for so long time. Apparently there is a quite complex
    (circular?) set of dependency involving at least dask,
    dask.distributed, python-sparse, python-xarray, python-pint, cfgrib.


If it helps, cfgrib only needs python-xarray for testing; a build with <!nocheck> currently still depends on python3-xarray, this could be fixed if it needs to in order to break a circular dependency.

Hi Alastair,
in the python-xarray tracker [1] I see:


Blocked by: python-pint
Migrates after: cfgrib, dask


but cfgrib is

Blocked by: python-xarray


Maybe removing the dependency of cfgrib and python-pint (I could take in charge of it) could help the migration of python-xarray, but the real issue, IMHO, is the dependency of python-xarray from dask.
