requests v2.11 has a syntax error in python3.2 #3479
Description
First of all thanks for the awesome library. I am really enjoying using requests. This is my favorite library.
In the last version of requests, I started to get an error on my own library and it turned out it was because of my requests dependency.
In python3.2, requests v2.11 gives following error:
File "/home/travis/build/huseyinyilmaz/placebo/requests/__init__.py", line 64, in <module>
from .models import Request, Response, PreparedRequest
File "/home/travis/build/huseyinyilmaz/placebo/requests/models.py", line 856
http_error_msg = u'%s Client Error: %s for url: %s' % (self.status_code, reason, self.url)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Here is the fix

Again sorry about the crappy way of testing. I could not install python3.2 on my local machine so I could not test it with requests tests.

Hey @huseyinyilmaz, I think this may have been discussed in #3385 (particularly here). Removing the
udesignation on the string would revert the unicode support added in #3385.sigmavirus24 commentedon Aug 8, 2016
Ah, I see @nateprewitt already chimed in over here.
huseyinyilmaz commentedon Aug 8, 2016
I see. So, python3.2 is not supported by requests library. Than I will just close the issue and pr.
Thanks for the link @nateprewitt .

Hey,
I just wanted to give some extra feedback. I got this error because when I installed requests with following command:
It installed an unstable version in python 3.2.
Is it possible to not to release unsupported versions in pypi. So python3.2 would not get any updates but it would always load supported version but old version.

@huseyinyilmaz That is not possible, I'm afraid: you'd need to ask @dstufft to provide tools to do that. It's a nice idea, certainly, although it requires much more formalisation of the trove classifiers system that currently exists.

@huseyinyilmaz I think you're going to have a bad time as more and more projects find it unreasonable to support Python 3.2. There are very few users on that version and it does not even receive security updates.
dstufft commentedon Aug 9, 2016
There are updates being made to PEP 503 that will make it possible. It'll take some time for setuptools/pip/etc to filter out that respects that.
