Problem
The current release (4.x) utilizes PEP 585 Generic Alias Types (e.g.,
dict[Any, Any]), which were introduced in Python 3.9.When installing this package on a Python 3.8 environment,
pipcurrently pulls the latest version becausesetup.pyis missing thepython_requiresconstraint. This leads to an immediate runtime crash:TypeError: 'type' object is not subscriptable.Solution
This PR adds
python_requires='>=3.9'tosetup.py.Benefit
This ensures that
pipon older environments (Python 3.8 and below) will correctly ignore the incompatible 4.x releases and automatically fall back to the last compatible version (3.x), preventing broken builds for users on legacy systems.
