Shouldn't this be:

That's good to hear! :-)
However in that case, let me point out that there is already a significant
amount of code and checks in there for Python 2 compatibility. Removing even
some of them might help with the overall maintainability of the codebase.
And for Wget2, we will change our base require

Anyways, I don't think this will break even with v4. Since the check is only

introduced in 2.7. I haven't checked, but I believe that the rest of the
