Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment:

I had a patch for this, but now think it would be an attractive nuisance, given 
that distutils does not always ensure proper HTTPS verification.

Not adding the ability to build sdists/wheels, check them and then upload them 
will help push people to twine, which doesn’t have all the .pypirc parsing bugs 
and is a good HTTPS citizen.

I will however commit a patch to clarify the message «no dist file created in 
earlier command».
