Update pep8 about flake8

[rfleschenberg]

@asottile Thanks! @sigmavirus24, I want to apologize for my comments. Reading them again now after 6 years have passed, I realize I sounded like an entitled asshole :( Sorry.

Appreciate it @rfleschenberg

We all have bad moments. I've definitely had mine and I'm trying to avoid having more by trying to figure out my stress coping strategies right now.

Please check existing (closed and open) issues before filing new ones. We're specifically pinning to <1.6.0 because it breaks other features. If you want to use newer (broken) versions of pep8, pin to flake8 2.3.0

I searched the existing issues, but could not find a related one. Can you point me to it?

So, you're "specifically pinning to" what? A certain pep8 version, I suppose? I realize that. The point is that the pep8 version you are using is buggy. It contradicts PEP 8.
See the output I gave above vs. https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#other-recommendations

You should either update your pep8 version or backport the fix for this bug.

OK. Now I read a little more on the other issues and realize how they are related. Sorry. I was also thinking you had actually bundled pep8, but it seems I was looking at the wrong source? Anyway, closing. I hope this gets fixed soon.
