It does not. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208296 for example.

Good point. Package manager does it if you install Pywikibot as side package.
But you are able to use Pywikibot in directory mode and install it from nightly
or git or svn repository. In that case dependencies weren’t checked in past.
Now package manager is used to validate dependencies for this case.
