Hi Guix,

The package python-matplotlib fails to build during the check phase on
i686-linux.  The test failure appears to be deterministic:

    def test_slider_horizontal_vertical():
        fig, ax = plt.subplots()
        slider = widgets.Slider(ax=ax, label='', valmin=0, valmax=24,
                                valinit=12, orientation='horizontal')
        slider.set_val(10)
        assert slider.val == 10
        # check the dimension of the slider patch in axes units
        box = slider.poly.get_extents().transformed(ax.transAxes.inverted())
