Let me know when you're finished and I'll release a new version of PythonQwt right away.

Thanks, appreciate the prompt support!

Actually I would appreciate a new release with those two patches if you have the time to spare, as I'm marking some tests with @pytest.mark.skip because of this bug, and I won't be able to merge until those are resolved.

Of course, technically I could use a development version, but this is not so simple to do because we use conda internally, and it is not as easy to use a development version as if we were using pip.
