This seems to have been done by the "let things break" approach that isn't allowed in Debian, e.g. they can no longer build python-matplotlib:Ubuntu already dropped python-pandas, I wasn't involved with that.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=934870 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/matplotlib2/2.2.4-2/+build/17968574 pandas is part of the big tangle discussed in https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2019/10/msg00092.htmlI haven't yet had time to investigate whether it can be removed from that tangle (by e.g. dropping Build-Depends and accepting skipped tests).
There's also the possibility that upgrading pandas to 0.25 will break API enough to break some reverse dependencies.
I intend to look into this tomorrow.
