             Summary: LTS backport: Upper bound for pytz dependency
                 Key: BEAM-7218
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7218
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: sdk-py-core
            Reporter: Ahmet Altay
            Assignee: Udi Meiri
             Fix For: Not applicable


Do we need an upper bound for the pytz dependency? 
([https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/release-2.5.0/sdks/python/setup.py#L108)] 
We typically have upper bounds, in order to avoid future breakages due to a 
possibility of breaking/backward incompatible change of that depepdency.

Good practice is to upper bound either at known version, or next major version. 
Do we need an exception for pytz because it does not seem to be following 
semantic versioning?

cc: [~yifanzou] Is this something dependency notifier can warn on? Dependency 
without upper version bounds.
