Required prerequisites

I have read the documentation https://nvitop.readthedocs.io.
I have searched the Issue Tracker that this hasn't already been reported. (comment there if it has.)
I have tried the latest version of nvitop in a new isolated virtual environment.

What version of nvitop are you using?

1.0.0

Operating system and version

SUSE GNU/Linux 15 SP1 x86_64

NVIDIA driver version

535.54.03

NVIDIA-SMI

N/A

Python environment

$ python3 -m pip freeze | python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.version, sys.platform); print("".join(filter(lambda s: any(word in s.lower() for word in ("nvi", "cuda", "nvml", "gpu")), sys.stdin)))'
3.6.5 (default, Apr 05 2018, 13:30:06) [GCC] linux
gpustat==1.1.1
nvidia-ml-py==11.525.150
nvitop==1.0.0
PyJSONViewer==1.6.0

Problem description

When I try to follow the instructions on this page, for running nvitop, i.e. when I run:

PYTHONFAULTHANDLER=1 pipx run --spec git+https://github.com/XuehaiPan/nvitop.git nvitop

(after updating pipx successfull) - I get this:

$ pip3 install git+https://github.com/XuehaiPan/nvitop.git#egg=nvitop

Hi @eyalroz, Python 3.6 reached the end-of-life phase 3 years ago. The lowest Python version that nvitop supports is Python 3.8 (also reached end-of-life). You need to use a newer Python interpreter. It is recommended to use uvx:

uvx nvitop

which will install the Python interpreter for you.

Hi @eyalroz, Python 3.6 reached the end-of-life phase 3 years ago.

Fair enough, but - could you not at least arrange it so that with unsupported version of Python, an error message would show up which says that? i.e. "You are trying to build nvitop with Python 3.6.x ; this is not supported, please use Python 3.8 or later"
