thanks for this :)

not at all

the bug is still true, maybe not for Debian, but I can think about a debian 
derivative that
got a freeze when setuptools-scm was at an unsuitable version, and gets a 
backport of the tool.
(or maybe people carefully apt-pinning stuff from testing, and updating 
borgbackup without updating setuptool-scm.

So even if you found the bug in the wrong way, the bug still persists and you 
are right (even if I don't think
many people will hit such use-case, I checked and at least ubuntu and ubuntu 
based shouldn't unsuitable versions)

cheers!
