When no version is explicitly specified in the source headers, the "or
later" is assumed. See e.g.:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-02/msg00026.html

In addition, both of these packages ship a "debian/copyright" file that
uses the "or any later version" form:

https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint/blob/master/debian/copyright
https://github.com/PyCQA/astroid/blob/master/debian/copyright

So I believe the current information is correct.
