--- Comment #2 from Kubilay Kocak <ko...@freebsd.org> ---
Python ports should declare the python versions that package *supports*, as
accurately and precisely as possible without being incorrect, within the
current limitations of the USES=python:<version-spec> specification syntax.
Generally speaking, if there is a package A (eg: Twisted), that supports Python
version X.Y (3.6), that depends on a package B (pyhamcrest, which is unclear or
does not explicitly state X.Y (3.6) support), either:
1) Package A's (twisted) dependencies are incorrectly specified/qualified, OR
2) Package B's (pyhamcrest) version support is incompletely specified.
Package A couldn't possibly support X.Y (3.6) if a dependency B didn't/doesn't
also.
Some upstream data points:
* pyhamcrest upstream appears to be testing up to 3.6 [1][2]
In this case it appears that (2) is more likely. Twisted is very well tested,
and they include optional dependencies in their CI builds, which would be
publicly failing for 3.4+ python versions if one of their dependencies didn't
support that version.
Test suits are by far the most valuable thing QA tool for us as packagers, so
add TEST_DEPENDS [3] and a (do-)test: target [4] to test pyhamcrest on 3.5/3.6.

[3] setup.py:test_dependencies = ['hypothesis>=1.11', 'pytest>=2.8',
[4] setup.py:cmdclass={'test': PyTest} (PYTHON_CMD PYDISTUTILS_SETUP test)
P.S: Please send PR's upstream to add update docs and classifiers (setup.py) to
include later python versions if they are confirmed to pass tests
