Package available but broken for python 3.7

[PoloB]

The setup.py allows to install the package for python 3.7 but the package is in fact only compliant with >=3.8.

Here's the relevant traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Should the setup.py be updated to only support >=3.8?

[sigmavirus24]

The release notes called out that we dropped support for 3.7 but we did forget to update the packaging metadata

[jparise]

Version 0.14.1 has the correct Python version requirement.

[PoloB]

Is 0.14.0 still fetched by pip for python 3.7 when no specific version is provided?

[sigmavirus24]

@PoloB you can use a number of ways to fix this for yourself

pep8-naming < 0.14.0 ; python_version < "3.8"
pep8-naming >= 0.14.0

For example.
