No, that file is not used and does not need to be changed.

The lower constraints tests only look at files in the same repo.
The minimum versions of dependencies set in requirements.txt,
test-requirements.txt, etc. need to match the values in
lower-constraints.txt.

In this case, the more detailed error message is a few lines above the
error quoted by Chen CH Ji. The detail say "Requirement for package
retrying has no lower bound" which means that there is a line in
requirements.txt indicating a dependency on "retrying" but without
specifying a minimum version. That is the problem.
