Public bug reported:

The pastebin.com fallback (in the event the distro can't be determined
by `distro` module) does not function.  While this does not block any
functionality for distro-specific pastebins such as paste.u.c or
Debian's paste, it DOES break pastebin.com functionality, making
pastebin.com as the fallback no longer feasible as long as every POST
triggers an HTTP 405 error.

Verbose data from an example where I intentionally force it to use
pastebin.com can be seen here:

(NOTE: Python version in this case is user-space Python 3.9.0 compiled myself 
using pyenv to handle multiple versions, however this is tested and confirmed 
on the system-shipped Python 3.8 series in Focal as well.)
