Hi, Problem solved. Finally managed to figure it out. 0.8.21.postN is a valid release name. After much fiddling around there is now a *one-time only* post release called *0.8.21.post7* (yes, it took that much trial and terror). This has no changes other than to setup.py which have now been backed out. Post releases are a real PITA, but at least anyone upgrading using pypi normally will upgrade to 0.8.21. Note this only exists on pypi and only because I needed to do a workaround to overcome their fascist rules. The instructions given previously will also give you what you want.
