flake8 is today broken ($subj) in Debian testing because pycodestyle
2.11 isn't API-compatible with 2.10 and python3-pycodestyle 2.11.1-1
migrated to testing before python3-flake8 6.1.0-1 did. The relevant
upstream change is this one:

https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8/commit/9786562feb573d30c73f18e1a0a6685c8584e9b5

Note that upstream does specify an upper bound on pycodestyle, but the
Debian python3-flake8 package does not. If it had, it would probably
prevent this scenario where one package migrated to testing and the
other didn't. (Well, I hope it would, but I don't know enough about
Debian to be sure.)

(Feel free to close this but please do consider whether that upper bound
would be appropriate. Presumably a similar problem might affect
python3-pyflakes but that didn't migrate yet.)

This problem makes flake8 completely broken.  The version in unstable
fixes that.  I've fixed both the severity and the version information.

Set upper bound on mccabe, pycodestyle, and pyflakes

Set upper bound on mccabe, pycodestyle, and pyflakes because those
