I agree.

Only two tests (out of 820) for python-dendropy fail:

+ test_fixed_species_tree_fitting (dendropy.test.test_multispeciescoalescent.MultispeciesCoalescentBasicTestCase)
+ test1 (dendropy.test.test_multispeciescoalescent.MultispeciesCoalescentFixedSingleTreesCalculationTestCase)

Both fail with

    TypeError: unorderable types: Edge() < Edge()

I think it’s worth building the package anyway after disabling these two
tests.  I reported the test failures upstream:
