Summary0005078: rtlsdr-scanner fails with error
Description

rtlsdr-scanner depends on python-matplotlib, whose API has changed and now axisbg property is deprecated:

https://github.com/paulbrodersen/matplotlib_venn_wordcloud/issues/3

This causes rtlsdr-scanner to fail when launched, see appended traceback.

Have you tried the upstream repository to see if it still occurs there?

We should probably version bump this to the latest release, regardless.

I just tried version 1.3.2 from upstream and at least it runs, probably the bug is version dependant.
