Yep, cutting back the supported file types in PyPI to only those used by automated Python level clients (i.e. sdist, wheel, egg) was a deliberate design decision: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0527/ That policy change means that platform specific installers (RPMs, MSI, DMG, Windows exes) need to be hosted outside PyPI now, and the message reported from twine about RPM being an unknown distribution format for the Python level tooling is an accurate one.
