New submission from davide moro <davide.m...@gmail.com>:
I noticed that with the python2.7 version of distutils.version.LooseVersion let
you compare '7' with 'xp' without exceptions (e.g., LooseVersion('7') >
LooseVersion('xp')).
If you do the same with python3.6 or python3.7, you'll get the following
exception:
* TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'int' and 'str'
You can see the full example with complete traceback and differences between
python2.x and python3.x here:

Thanks,
