[issue20120] Percent-signs (%) in .pypirc should not be interpolated

Sviatoslav Sydorenko added the comment: Not sure if it's in the scope of this issue but I thought I'd report it. I've just hit a similar issue with `setup.cfg` under Python 3.8 which is supposed to be parsed by `setuptools` but for some reason, I only see `distutils` in the trace, coming

Thomas Levine added the comment: I just upgraded from 3.5.1 to 3.5.2 and found that I couldn't authenticate to PyPI anymore. And then I remembered that this had been fixed, so removed the extra percent sign, and my uploads worked. Thanks! -- ___

Jason R. Coombs added the comment: Łukasz, my proposal was to also update distutils (in all Python versions that get bugfixes) to match the Setuptools behavior and Python 2 behavior. I'd still like to do that to harmonize the implementations. --

R. David Murray added the comment: So fixing distutils to use RawConfigParser? How likely is that to break currently working python3-only code? I'm imagining from what you wrote that your answer is "very close to zero', but I'd like explicit confirmation :) --

Thomas Levine added the comment: I noticed something else that might be interesting. If I delete my .pypirc and have setuptools create it, python3.5 -c 'import setuptools; setuptools.setup()' register the .pypirc is created with the un-escaped percent sign and without error. I receive the

Jason R. Coombs added the comment: Setuptools 19 has been out for over a month now with no adverse consequences. Łukasz and David, as you both originally tagged this as won't fix, how would you feel about interpreting this as a defect and regression over Python 2.7 and fixing it it all Python

Thomas Levine added the comment: The error message could just say. something to the effect of ".pypyrc works differently in Python 2 and Python 3. If you want a percent sign in Python 3, you have to escape it with another percent sign". Suppose someone is already using a configuration file

[issue20120] Percent-signs (%) in .pypirc should not be interpolated

Jason R. Coombs added the comment: It doesn't make sense to give guidance to use one percent sign on one Python and two on another because .pypirc applies to all Python versions. I'm sure it's not uncommon for one to use different versions of Python for various package releases. I'm planning

Jason R. Coombs added the comment: This same issue applies to setuptools (https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issues/442/setuptools-1832-cannot-access-pypi-if-pypi). I've created a test that captures the failure, but I struggled to find a solution that doesn't break across Python versions.

Łukasz Langa added the comment: Yes, that's wontfix but we can make the error message more friendly so I'll leave this open. The .pypirc parser should have been RawConfigParser from the start, the interpolation mechanism is obscure enough it's probably not used. Unfortunately this probably
