This seems wrong to have in *any* case. What version of python
a module requires to build seems like it would be tied specifically
to why python features it uses. For example, python-frobozz uses
no new python features, and would need;
BuildRequires: python
while python-mumblefrotz uses some random new thing, and would need:
BuildRequires: python-abi = 2.4
I don't think the build reuqires should be autogenerated at all.
