When collecting PyPI metadata for PyPI package provides/requires, autospec runs pip install PACKAGE in a virtualenv. Instead, it should be running pip install PACKAGE==VERSION for the target package version.

This will fix issues that occasionally appear when a package is intentionally older than latest (e.g. Django remaining on the LTS series), and it will help avoid invalid queries when naming clashes exist between PyPI and other ecosystems (e.g. meld is a GNOME package, and a different project named meld is a PyPI package, and both use setuptools to build).

meld: Autospec creation for update from version 3.20.2 to version 3.20.3
643dcde 
Packaging notes:

- A PyPI package exists with the name 'meld', but it's unrelated to this
  package. Autospec should probably have a heuristic to make a better
  guess about whether a package corresponds to a PyPI package with the
  same (canonicalized) name. For now, ban all pypi requires. Autospec
  issue filed at clearlinux/autospec#652.

Generate pypi data from version-qualified installs
e41a94a 
In case a PyPI package being processed is not the "current" version
listed in the PyPI catalog, make sure to `pip install` an older release
of the package corresponding to the parsed content version string.

Fixes clearlinux#652

I posted a possible solution for this issue to a branch:

https://github.com/phmccarty/autospec/commits/issue652

I'm not sure about this approach though, so I'll leave it there for now.

Un-ban pypi requires symbols
2208080 
Some pypi requires symbols needed to be banned for ansible 2.9.x due to
an open autospec bug [0]; packaging the latest ansible means that we do
not need to ban any of these symbols at the moment.
