That is somewhat worrying. I created a new ticket for this: https://bitbucket.org/pypa/pypi/issue/161/rest-formatting-fails-and-there-is-no-way > > 3) The user should have some way of running the conversion locally (as > a check), using the same rules as PyPI, so the user can be assured in > advance that the conversion will be successful when interacting with > the real PyPI. I don’t believe that is a viable approach. I suspect there is a reasonable risk that environment changes between PyPI and your local system, for example environment settings or available locals, and using different versions of packages such as docutils will lead to incorrect results. There really is no substitute for PyPI itself reporting errors it finds. Wichert.
