pip installing to Python 2.7 installs the non 2.7 compatible version

[selimt]

It seems like pip installing the latest version of inject on Python 2.7 tries to install version 4.3.1 which is compatible with 3.6+ . Is there a way for it to resolve to the latest 2.7 compatible version?

Thanks.

Hi,

There is a table with supported versions in readme:

Python	Inject Version
3.6+	4.1+
3.5	4.0
< 3.5	3.*

You can install a specific version with:
pip install 'Inject==3.5.4'

Yes but if your setup.py contained the ‘python_requires’ option as specified here:

https://packaging.python.org/guides/distributing-packages-using-setuptools/#python-requires

then pip would not try to install an incompatible release.

You may add it and make a pull request, if you want :-)
