Thanks Brendan for filing the tracking bug!  I happened to be
investigating the same issue as well.  I initially intend to convert the
build process to use elpa-package-lint as a dependency, but it turned
out that package-lint stable releases might be broken for each Emacs
release and this happened for 29.3 as well.  Currently I'm discussing
this with upstream[1].  If that turns out to be in feasible, I'll
fallback to what you proposed.

Stay tuned.
