Description

Gimmecert is supported on a number of different Python versions. This is guaranteed by running the relevant functional and unit tests.

However, at the moment it is still possible to install Gimmecert even on unsupported Python versions. The installation will work, but the tool will be completely unusable.

It would be better to fail early, and with clear message, instead of letting the users successfully install the tool.

The following should be done:

  • Update the setup.py to include "protection" against installation on unsupported version of Python.
    • Include the python_requires argument. While this will only work with pip 9.0.0+, it should still be good enough. It's not worth the hassle to cover every possible software combination out there.
