How to write Python code that is able to properly require a minimal python version?

Question

I would like to see if there is any way of requiring a minimal python version.

Rather than indexing you could always do this,

import platform
if platform.python_version() not in ('2.6.6'):
    raise RuntimeError('Not right version')
