Hi, I just want to note that I'm aware of this issue and I have "do something about it" in my long TODO. That link is malformed in any case - docutils just passes it on through and you're just lucky that browsers will guess that it is supposed to have a "http://" scheme on the front. PyPI does indeed check URL schemes in links for security reasons. I guess I never though that I'd need to allow a blank one - I'd have to think about the implications of allowing it.

I just uploaded a new pyramid_sqlalchemy package to PyPI. Looking at the distribution page at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyramid_sqlalchemy PyPI is not rendering ReST. I can’t figure out why though: according to both “python setup.py check” and "python setup.py --long-description | rst2html-2.7.py > /dev/null” there are no ReST syntax errors in me description. Is there any way to see why PyPI is not rendering my ReST?
I ended up debugging this by manually bisecting the long description through the PyPI web-interface. The culprit turned out to be this bit:
`Pyramid <docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/latest/>`_
This is perfectly valid ReST, but I am guessing PyPI somehow forbids you from using URLs without a scheme.
