Don't use "unittest2" for Python 3 #14

Closed htgoebel closed 7 years ago

htgoebel commented 7 years ago

linecache2 requires unittest2 for testing, but unittest2 "is no longer needed" for Python 3 (quoted from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/unittest2). Please update the requirements file to conditionally require unittest2 only for older Python version.

Each additional package makes distribution maintainers life more complicated, since they have to maintain yet another package even if the distribution only includes Python 3.5 or even 3.6.

Thanks.
