On Ubuntu 18.04 (others not tested) installing the dev requirements
fails with the following error
babel 2.6.0 has requirement pytz>=0a, but you'll have pytz 2012d which
is incompatible.
Despite the comment in dev_requirements.txt pytz-2012d is not the most
recent version to support Python 2.6. In fact the latest release of pytz
supports Python 2.6.
By replacing pytest-capturelog with pytest-catchlog we fix one warning
that is reported by pytest:
```
venv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pytest_capturelog.py:171
'pytest_runtest_makereport' hook uses deprecated __multicall__
argument
None
pytest_funcarg__caplog: declaring fixtures using "pytest_funcarg__"
prefix is deprecated and scheduled to be removed in pytest 4.0. Please
remove the prefix and use the @pytest.fixture decorator instead.
pytest_funcarg__capturelog: declaring fixtures using
"pytest_funcarg__" prefix is deprecated and scheduled to be removed in
pytest 4.0. Please remove the prefix and use the @pytest.fixture
decorator instead.

```
pytest-capturelog seems to be unmaintained, the bug in question
<https://bitbucket.org/memedough/pytest-capturelog/issues/6> has been
open since July 2015. pytest-catchlog is a fork of pytest-capturelog.
