Colin Watson has proposed merging 
~cjwatson/launchpad-buildd:unpin-python-debian into launchpad-buildd:master.

Commit message:
Unversion python-debian requirement

Requested reviews:
  Launchpad code reviewers (launchpad-reviewers)

For more details, see:

The minimum version required was very old (pre-xenial), so the version 
constraint was no longer really necessary.  Furthermore, the version of the 
packaged python-debian in >= focal confuses modern pip/setuptools (see 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1926870); removing the version constraint 
avoids needing to care about this.
