Description
Dependabot has a failed workflow due to it having an unsupported python version (3.8). I'm not sure why we have pip updates enabled for dependabot at all for this repo, given we explicitly don't update python dependencies for python-docker (there are none in the repo outside of the ones for the v1/v2 images).
Consider removing it (we might need to explicitly disable and ignore the requirements.txt paths due to dependabot's tendency to pick up any .txt file as a pip requirements file even if you haven't configured it)

Research direction
Inspect the repository's Dependabot configuration and the linked failed workflow first. Check how requirements.txt paths are being discovered or configured; done means pip updates are removed or explicitly disabled and the unsupported Python 3.8 workflow issue no longer occurs.
