Conversation
For gitpython-developers#2107. Note that this does not affect the container workflow `alpine-test.yml` workflow (that is, it doesn't affect actually running the test suite in Alpine Linux, which continues to work), only WSL in Windows jobs in the main workflow `pythonpackage.yml`.

Changes:
- Switch WSL distribution from Alpine back to Debian in
pythonpackage.yml. - Remove Alpine-only
additional-packages: bashconfiguration.

Fixes #2107
Note that this does not affect the container workflow
alpine-test.ymlworkflow (that is, it doesn't affect actually running the test suite in Alpine Linux, which continues to work), only WSL in Windows jobs in the main workflowpythonpackage.yml.This PR is a bit earlier than might be implied by my wording in #2107. It turns out there is at least one other PR that is effectively blocked only on this: the lint error shown in #2105 is something I can fix once this CI blocker is resolved.
I plan to merge this once CI passes.
