* Make yn validator case insensitive, to allow for ``True`` and ``False`` in config files.

* The last version compatible with python '3.6.0' and '3.6.1' is pylint '2.9.3'. We did not
168+
realize that when adding incompatible typing at the time, and all versions since are broken
169+
for this interpreter. 2.12.0 meta-information will permit to download pylint on those
170+
interpreters but the installation will fail and tell you to install '2.9.3' instead.
171+
pylint 2.12.1 will require python >= 3.6.2.
