We have an old version of keras.  This is now broken.  It is not
compatible with python-h5py > 2.10.  Our version of Tensorflow also
won=E2=80=99t work with h5py 3.

We can=E2=80=99t upgrade keras to anything above 2.2.5 because any later ve=
rsion
is built with Bazel.  We cannot build Bazel, because it needs a big pile
of jars that we haven=E2=80=99t packaged yet.

Tensorflow > 1.9 also requires Bazel.

We should work towards packaging Bazel.  Debian has a Bazel bootstrap
package, so I=E2=80=99m hopeful that it=E2=80=99s possible to package with =
some effort.
