 ===========================================
  IPython: Productive Interactive Computing
 ===========================================
 
 Overview
 ========
 
 Welcome to IPython.  Our full documentation is available on `ipython.readthedocs.io
 <https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_ and contains information on how to install, use and
 contribute to the project.
 
 Officially, IPython requires Python version 3.3 and above.
 IPython 5.x is the last IPython version to support Python 2.7.
 
 The Notebook, Qt console and a number of other pieces are now parts of *Jupyter*.
 See the `Jupyter installation docs <http://jupyter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>`__
 if you want to use these.
 
 
 
 
 Development and Instant runnimg
 ================================
 
 You can find the latest version of the development documentation on `readthedocs
 <http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_. 
 
 You can run IPython from this directory without even installing it system-wide
 by typing at the terminal::
     
    $ python -m IPython
 
 Or see the `development installation docs
 <http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install/install.html#installing-the-development-version>`_
 for the latest revision on read the docs. 
 
 Documentation and installation instructions for older version of IPython can be
 found on the `IPython website <http://ipython.org/documentation.html>`_
+
+
+
+IPython requires Python version 3 or above
+==========================================
+
+Starting with version 6.0, IPython does not support Python 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, or
+3.2.
+
+For a version compatible with Python 2.7, please install the 5.x LTS Long Term
+Support version.
+
+If you are encountering this error message you are likely trying to install or
+use IPython from source. You need to checkout the remote 5.x branch. If you are
+using git the following should work:
+
+  $ git fetch origin
+  $ git checkout -b origin/5.x
+
+If you encounter this error message with a regular install of IPython, then you
+likely need to update your package manager, for example if you are using `pip`
+check the version of pip with
+
+  $ pip --version
+
+You will need to update pip to the version 8.2 or greater. If you are not using
+pip, please inquiry with the maintainers of the package for your package
+manager.
+
+For more information see one of our blog posts:
+
+    http://blog.jupyter.org/2016/07/08/ipython-5-0-released/
