Generally speaking, if there is a package A (eg: Twisted), that supports Python version X.Y (3.6), that depends on a package B (pyhamcrest, which is unclear or does not explicitly state X.Y (3.6) support), either: 1) Package A's (twisted) dependencies are incorrectly specified/qualified, OR 2) Package B's (pyhamcrest) version support is incompletely specified. Package A couldn't possibly support X.Y (3.6) if a dependency B didn't/doesn't also. Some upstream data points: * pyhamcrest upstream appears to be testing up to 3.6 [1][2] In this case it appears that (2) is more likely. Twisted is very well tested, and they include optional dependencies in their CI builds, which would be publicly failing for 3.4+ python versions if one of their dependencies didn't support that version. Test suits are by far the most valuable thing QA tool for us as packagers, so add TEST_DEPENDS [3] and a (do-)test: target [4] to test pyhamcrest on 3.5/3.6.
