README.rst not parsing on pypi but dose on testpypi

Question

After i released a new version of my package, for some reason pypi stopped showing the README.rst.

The changes were minimal, here is the diff between the two versions of the README.rst file.
I cant understand what broke it...

I've also tried to upload it to testpypi, and surprise surprise i can see it there perfectly.

link to testpypi
link to pypi

any idea what went wrong?

Answer 1

I had the same problem and couldn't figure it out. Then I found this repo that just wrote the README to the long_description field. Worked for me.
