20-some descriptions (which ones)?

I can only see a single link that might be the Pylons-dev egg link,
namely

https://www.knowledgetap.com/hg/pylons-dev/archive/ tip.tar.gz#egg=Pylons-dev

Yes, this is because the co-founder of the project has already gone through all of the releases, and removed all the other #egg=Pylons-dev links from them.

Here is one that I have yet to go back through and remove the old #egg=Pylons-dev links from:
http://pypi.python.org/simple/Beaker/

At the bottom, you can see multiple links for it. When easy_install runs, it usually goes for the first link (which is from an old package description), not the one from the latest package.

Also, why do you want to remove a link from the pages?

Because there is only one development version, and the repo changed from where it was in the past. So the old links are totally dead and shouldn't be looked at. #egg=Beaker-dev should be a unique name, and there shouldn't be multiple links for it in the page there which is what easy_install looks at when you do:
easy_install -U Beaker==dev

Cheers,
Ben
