This filename has previously been used, you should use a different version.<br>

This does NOT prevent authors from being allowed to delete files from PyPI,<br>
however if a file is deleted from PyPI it cannot be re-uploaded again. This<br>
means that if you upload say foobar-1.0.tar.gz, and your 1.0 has a mistake in<br>
it then you *must* issue a new release to correct it.<br>
