Bug Description

Imported from Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/1020901:

Package: ubuntu-dev-tools
Version: 0.190
Tags: patch

`backportpackage` currently fails when the `lsb_release` Python module
is not available, as it is the case since 2022-09-26 in Debian unstable.

The attached patch makes `backportpackage` use the `lsb_release` command
when the namesake Python module is not available.

I uploaded a fix to debian, though I forgot to include this LP bug number in the changelog.

since 0.191 is only bugfix I plan to sync it once it's possible.

  [ Dan Streetman ]
  * lpapicache:
    + Make sure that login() actually logins and doesn't use cached credentials.
  * ubuntu-build:
    + Fix crash caused by a change in lpapicache that changed the default
      operation mode from authenticated to anonymous. LP: #1984113

  [ Stefano Rivera ]
  * backportpackage:
    + Add support for lsb-release-minimal, which doesn't have a Python module.
      Thanks to Gioele Barabucci for the patch. Closes: #1020901

  [ Mattia Rizzolo ]
  * ubuntutools/archive.py:
    + Fix operation of SourcePackage._source_urls() (as used, for example, in
      SourcePackage.pull() called by backportpackage) to also work when the
      class is instantiated with a URL as .dsc. Fixes regression from v0.184.
      Thanks to Unit 193 for the initial patch.
