Description

New users are in the dark about which platforms PyMarket is tested and known to run on: All?
There are no platform specific gotchas in the package dependencies?

I specified in the installation section that the library has been tested in Linux and Mac

I don't believe you can claim this is true. See issue #11. A user would really have to want to use this library to persevere through this setup.

Please update the install instructions to reflect:

What OS's pymarket has been tested to run on - So far it seems only Ubuntu Xenial 18.04?
The install instructions and minimum versions for the OS's listed in 1.

I don't understand why you don't believe in that claim.
There is a travis set up, running on linux and os: https://travis-ci.org/gus0k/pymarket/builds/597584718

As I explained while closing issue #11, that was a problem with the python version, not with the OS.

If you look at #11 you'll see it is a pip issue.
Your .travis.yml confirms that.

Nowhere do you state the latest pip has to be used, nor do you say how it should be upgraded.

Each distro has a 'supported' set of packages. Each project has supported versions. Going outside of that generally means your on your own in terms of support contracts.

Please understand: very few users will persevere like this.

I updated the installation instructions to reflect how to upgrade pip and python version

I'm sure your users will appreciate the clarity.

Please change:

"PyMarket has been tested in Linux and mac OS."

to:

PyMarket has been tested in Ubutu Xenial (16.04) and mac OS.

In fact a find and replace /Linux/Ubuntu 16.04/, through out the code base is in order.

Done, I updated the docs with specific versions. Manjaro is my local development environment Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐
