python.el has a feature whereby the editor will progressively present the
python code lines that the user is stepping through in a pdb session in a
python buffer (or any comint buffer to which the user has added the filter
functions). The python.el pdb tracking provisions includes a function,
`python-pdbtrack-set-tracked-buffer()`, which registers python code buffers
that were created to visit files for pdbtracking for subsequent deletion
(the buffers, not the files) after the pdb session concludes. The problem
is that this provision sometimes registers buffers that were present in the
editing session before the pdbtracking session, so that pdbtracking
sometimes causes pdbtracked buffers to be deleted when it shouldn't.

I'm unsure what exact conditions lead to the problem, but I'm pretty sure
that `python-pdbtrack-set-tracked-buffer()` uses the wrong buffer-finding
function. Instead of using `get-file-buffer()`, it should be using
`find-buffer-visiting()`. I believe that this will solve the problem.

Here's a diff of python.el from the emacs-26.2.90 branch with my suggested
change applied. (The same patch would obtain for the master branch):

diff --git a/lisp/progmodes/python.el b/lisp/progmodes/python.el

     (if file-buffer
         (setq python-pdbtrack-tracked-buffer file-buffer)
       (cond

I have verified that pdbtracking will delete some buffers that were created
just for tracking and keep some buffers that were present before tracking,
but haven't used it long enough to be sure it will do the right thing with
all buffers. But I'm pretty sure that find-buffer-visiting should be used
instead of get-file-buffer, so am pretty confident that this is a proper
change.
