Drop support for Python 3.6 #517

Closed simonw closed 1 year ago

simonw commented 1 year ago

CI has started failing for Python 3.6: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/actions/runs/3576322798

It's fixable by swiching away from ubuntu-latest according to:

https://github.com/actions/setup-python/issues/355#issuecomment-1335042510

But https://endoflife.date/python says that 3.6 end of life was almost 6 years ago, and end of security support nearly 1 year ago.

So I'm OK dropping support entirely - Python 3.6 users will still be able to install version 3.30, just not any releases that come next.

At some point I should drop it from all of these other projects too: https://cs.github.com/?scopeName=All+repos&scope=&q=user%3Asimonw+%223.6%22+path%3A.github%2Fworkflows%2F*
