That's when I realized the project had been renamed and I had installed the outdated pep8 version 1.7.0 instead of the current pycodestyle 2.0.0\r\n\r\nI'm not familiar with PyPI and don't know if there is a possibility to deprecate packages but it would be a huge help for new users if the name change was announced prominently at [[1]](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pep8) and [[2]](http://pep8.readthedocs.io/).\r\nAn updated package of pep8 with a deprecation warning might be yet another option if that's not too much to ask.\r\n\r\n[1] https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pep8\r\n[2] http://pep8.readthedocs.io/"}}
