Research direction

Start by locating the package's CherryPy dependency declaration and check how its version is constrained. Pin the dependency to the 17.x series, then verify that an out-of-the-box Python 2.x installation no longer selects CherryPy 18.0 or later.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

CherryPy dropped support for python 2.x with their 18.0 release. The dependency specified for this package will cause out of the box installs to fail on python 2.x because of it.

Can you pin the cherryPy dependency to 17.x?
