Downgrades to old versions of required packages upon installation

[cartisan]

The versions of the packages in requirements.txt are fixed with == .
This leads to the replacement of current versions of this packages with old ones upon installation of newspaper with pip install newspaper.

I would plead for using >= syntax for all required packages unless there is an important reason to use a specific version on single requirements. An nice example requirements.txt can be found here: https:/scikit-image/scikit-image/blob/master/requirements.txt

Good idea, doing this now. (Originally done with == to ensure no breakage on current setups, but that clearly isn't working with many recent issues being around version numbers).

I can add this quickly (current versions and up should work).
