Sounds like the reasonable way to go.

Let me try, with a pip that has your local version identifier fixes from 
https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/2205

$ pip install -U --trusted-host pypi.zestsoftware.nl -f 
http://pypi.zestsoftware.nl/public/packagingtest/ 
myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1
Collecting myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1
   Downloading myproject-1.3.dev0+maurits.1.zip
Requirement already up-to-date: Jinja2[i18n] in 
./lib/python2.7/site-packages (from myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1)
   Installing extra requirements: u'i18n'
Requirement already up-to-date: markupsafe in 
./lib/python2.7/site-packages (from 
Jinja2[i18n]->myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1)
Requirement already up-to-date: Babel>=0.8 in 
./lib/python2.7/site-packages (from 
Jinja2[i18n]->myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1)
Requirement already up-to-date: pytz>=0a in 
./lib/python2.7/site-packages (from 
Babel>=0.8->Jinja2[i18n]->myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1)
Installing collected packages: myproject
   Found existing installation: myproject 1.2
     Uninstalling myproject:
       Successfully uninstalled myproject
   Running setup.py install for myproject
Successfully installed myproject

Working fine.

Now I create and upload myproject version 1.3.

$ pip install -U --trusted-host pypi.zestsoftware.nl -f 
http://pypi.zestsoftware.nl/public/packagingtest/ myproject==1.3
Collecting myproject==1.3
   Downloading myproject-1.3.zip
...
Installing collected packages: myproject
   Found existing installation: myproject 1.3.dev0+maurits.1
     Uninstalling myproject:
       Successfully uninstalled myproject
   Running setup.py install for myproject
Successfully installed myproject

Again, working fine.

A '-U myproject' also gives me 1.3, and I can still request 
myproject==1.3.dev0+maurits.1 if I want.

Good!
