The update bot opened a version PR for web-app-jira (#821) although the role is end of life: none of the updaters looked at the lifecycle. utils.update.base.is_maintained now answers that question once, and the collectors for image versions, declared version sources, pip pins, repository refs and the addon check skip a role whose lifecycle is eol.
The lint that requires every semver pin to be watched shares that scope, otherwise it would report the pins of the eol roles as unwatched. Every other stage, deprecated included, stays in the update scope.

The version cron updates docker image tags and repository refs, and tests/external/update covers docker, addons and repository. Neither sees a version inside an Ansible task variable, and dependabot reads pyproject.toml rather than roles/. A pin set once therefore froze and nothing thawed it: backup-docker-to-local has not moved since it was written, and the automtu pin one commit back would have gone the same way.
utils/update/pip mirrors the docker module: collect the pins, ask PyPI, rewrite in place. Only exact == pins are collected, because a range or a VCS reference states an intent an updater must not overrule. The external check warns rather than fails, like its docker sibling, so a slow PyPI cannot redden a run and a release the repository has deliberately not taken is not a regression.
The cron job is the docker job with one script swapped, so a changed pin arrives as its own PR under update/pip-pins.
Executed: the collector finds both pins in the repository; a synthetic file rewrites from 1.0.0 to 1.1.1 with the indent, quoting and neighbouring line untouched; automtu==1.0.0 would be reported while a bare name and a git+ reference are passed over.
