Hi folks

The version of python-pint currently in sid is not compatible with the 
version of python-babel, with the version of babel being too new. The 
result is that pint currently FTBFS in sid: #1022469.

The pint package has received a substantial update from its upstream 
authors. This new version of pint is still _not_ compatible with 
babel>2.8 but does sort out some problems with babel. A couple of tests 
need to be xfailed with a patch to let it build. That's a clear 
indication that we're ignoring problems not solving them, but it's 
better than the current situation of not having pint in bookworm at all.

The advantage of updating python-pint is that it is closer to working 
with the babel we have in sid. Updating pint also permits other packages 
to build (like superqt). I've got updated packages for python-pint 
(0.20.1-1) and superqt (0.4.0-1) ready to upload.

It's not perfect but seems like a step forward. Thoughts?

cheers
Stuart
