Python 3.2 and 3.3 are end of life. They are no longer receiving bug fixes, including for security issues. Python 3.3 went EOL on 2017-09-29 and Python 3.2 on 2016-02-20. For additional details on supported Python versions, see:

https://devguide.python.org/#status-of-python-branches

Removing support for EOL Pythons will reduce necessary testing and maintenance resources.

Pass python_requires argument to setuptools to help pip decide what version of the library to install.

Using pypinfo, here are the download statistics for the last 30 days, showing very minimal use of these EOL pythons:

$ pypinfo --percent pycparser pyversion

python_version percent download_count
2.7 71.64% 1,373,309
3.6 15.78% 302,407
3.5 8.32% 159,452
3.4 3.80% 72,850
2.6 0.32% 6,187
3.7 0.12% 2,263
3.3 0.02% 360
3.2 0.00% 15
3.8 0.00% 5
None 0.00% 1
