Description

When running Gitea as a private PyPi package registry there may be packages that do not match the canonical public version and instead use a local version identifier as outlined in PEP-0440. An example of this could be an internally forked version of certify https://pypi.org/project/certifi/#files that includes custom CAs specific to that organization.

When attempting to use these packages with Gitea it will return a 400 Bad Request with "invalid name or version"

Gitea Version

1.17.3

Can you reproduce the bug on the Gitea demo site?

Also as a note, to quickly make a version that matches you can do the following:

Download the latest Built version of certify from here: https://pypi.org/project/certifi/#files
Extract the .whl as a zip archive
Rename the .dist-info folder to include the +<local_id>
Inside of that folder, edit the METADATA file to include the +<local_id> on its version
Rezip the two folders into a .whl named with the new local id version. (these folders should be at the root of the archive)
