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
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
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 configur

It has been working for me recently.
Adding to your suggestion that it is probably PyPI: I didn't do anything in
particular to fix this, and I think it is more likely that PyPI got fixed than
that I upgraded Python (and thus distutils).

Hmm now it looks to me like this is the intended behavior.

Switching the single percent sign (%) to two (%%) in .pypirc makes it work.
Maybe we can make a nicer error message
