Nikolay,
There is indeed a feature in `setuptools` I just learned about, which
would help in this case (and I believe the case you demonstrated can be
quite typical, thank you for pointing it out). It gives user a clever
message in the end of a stack trace like
> UnsupportedPythonVersion: pyignite requires Python '>=3.4' but the
> running Python is 2.7.15
This feature is not 100% bullet-proof, and it will not help users who
will try to install my client other way than with `pip` or `setup.py`.
It will also be less helpful with old versions of `pip` (before 9.0).
However, it should cover most situations.

Hello, Dmitry.
I understand that for experienced Python developer it obvious from
stack trace I send.
But can we check python version on startup? And print big fat error
message "You are using wrong python version".

From my experience, there are some tickets in Ignite that should be
implemented in various thin clients. It a very trivial changes, but
lack of testability makes this task harder then steel.
I think a .Net DEVNOTES are very good example.
Please, be gentle with your fellow contributors and make DEVNOTES as
clear as possible.
