Bug Description
Recent autopkgtest runs of scipy have been failing due to tests/test_
An example of a run failure can be seen at [1].
Local tests indicate that TestGIL:
The test needs to be skipped for the autopkgtest to pass. It can be done by:
1. Adding a @pytest.mark.skipif decorator to it to check for ram availability
2. Adding a @pytest.mark.skip to it to always skip, even when the instance could run it
3. Skipping it in scipy/conftest.py by adding a clause to check for the item.nodeid in the pytest_
All options require a patch in debian/patches. The code under debian/

Due to the package name change (python-scipy to scipy) it was no longer being run in autopkgtest's big_instance, thus the failure.
So as an alternative to low ram systems the proposed merge does workaround the issue and no debdiff is required.
