Hi,

If you're looking at the requirements.txt file from upstream to tell 
what version you need in Debian, this is a *very* wrong approach.

What's happening is that your upstream is using the requirements.txt to 
tell pip what version to fetch for paperless-ng testing. This is, in no 
way, some indication of what should be in your package.

For example, the requirements.txt contains:
pytz==2021.1

however, I'd be really surprised if paperless-ng wouldn't work with some 
other version of python3-tz (even an older one).

What's harder then, is to know what is the minimum version of each 
component for your application. However, running internal tests at build 
time may help you to know.

I hope this helps,
Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
