title: Installing python package fails with Package 'example' requires a different Python: 2.7.12 not in '>=2.5, >=3.0' , although version should fit
body: <p>I'm trying to install a python package, but it fails with :</p>
  
  <pre><code>pip2 install ./example-0.1.0-py2-none-any.whl
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ERROR: Package 'example' requires a different Python: 2.7.12 not in '>=2.5, >=3.0'</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So this error message is wrong imo , 2.7.12 is obviously >=2.5 .</p>
  
  <p>This seems to only fail with new pip versions and python2.
  All other combinations of python/pip/setuptools seem to work, see the table below for more details.</p>
