It's EOL. Ubuntu 20.04 is the last officially-supported distro that uses it, and Ubuntu 20.04 will exit standard security maintenance on May 31.

Actually, this doesn't need to wait until May 31. pip install automatically falls back to older package releases if newer ones don't support the selected Python version.
