Description

While building debian package for 0.11.0+git43-g7b2eaa4, matplotlib 1.1.1~rc2-1 and while building it should use Agg backend, that is how tests are invoked

python-test%: python-install%
ifeq (,$(filter nocheck,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
        echo "backend : Agg" >| $(CURDIR)/build/matplotlibrc
        : # Run unittests here against installed pandas
        echo "$*" | grep -q '^3' && PY=3 || PY=$*; \
        export PYTHONPATH=`/bin/ls -d $$PWD/debian/tmp/usr/lib/python$$PY/*/`; \
        export MPLCONFIGDIR=$(CURDIR)/build HOME=$(CURDIR)/build; \
        cd build/; python$* /usr/bin/nosetests -s -v -a '!network' $(EXCLUDE_TESTS$*) pandas;
else
        : # Skip unittests due to nocheck
endif

and here is a prototypical error (there is more for other invocations for the _check):
