Hmm, maybe an issue with Tox then?

Ah, but it doesn't pin with a < perhaps? I'm guessing, but perhaps 
that's the cause of the problem:

Thanks for all the help, I'm sure you can appreciate how frustrating it 
is to make no changes to your code, come back and run a Jenkins job a 
few months later and have it fail in strange and mysterious ways ;-)
