zope.app.authentication 3.4.3 + download.zope.org/simple == broken
If you use the http://download.zope.org/ppix or http://download.zope.org/simple indexes and try to get zope.app.authentication 3.4.3 (the newest), you will get a 404 error. Looking at PyPI and the zope.org index, it is evident why. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.app.authentication/3.4.3 only lists one release, the source release http://download.zope.org/simple/zope.app.authentication/ lists 3.4.3 eggs as well. I strongly suspect that someone uploaded the zope.app.authentication eggs to PyPI; the zope.org index saw them and recorded them; and then someone removed the eggs from PyPI. It would be great if someone could re-upload the eggs to PyPI. More importantly, this is a reminder to please not remove eggs. The behavior or download.zope.org/simple is reasonable. Removing eggs isn't. :-) Thanks Gary

Indeed... I've reuploaded them but they don't have the same MD5. Is it a problem? easy_install does not seem to complain
Thanks

I don't know the official answer, but it doesn't seem to be a problem practically for my tests. It works.

The same happened for a lot of files from zope.security. :( The simple index has 3.4.1 as a zip and a tarball, but pypi only has the tarball left. -- Christian Theune · ct@gocept.com gocept gmbh & co. kg · forsterstraße 29 · 06112 halle (saale) · germany http://gocept.com · tel +49 345 1229889 7 · fax +49 345 1229889 1 Zope and Plone consulting and development

My fault. The eggs in question were (a) broken (doctests with inconsistent line endings causing test module import failures) and (b) unnecessrary (the eggs had no extension modules inside). I asked on IRC whether removing binary eggs from PyPI would be bad, given that there's a source distribution for the same version, and nobody brought up zope.org's index.
It would be great if someone could re-upload the eggs to PyPI.

Well, now I know. Previously I thought only removing whole released versions from PyPI was bad. Marius Gedminas -- It is easier to optimize correct code than to correct optimized code. -- Bill Harlan
