[issue32716] setup.py register --repository is broken

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower  added the comment:

Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being 
closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered 
for distutils.

If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and 
reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should 
be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools

[issue32716] setup.py register --repository is broken

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

There are many open issues with .pypirc.

I don’t think that -r URL is a supported use case though; the docs should say 
that the usage is to add a section in .pypirc to define a repo, then use -r 
repo-section-name.

[issue32716] setup.py register --repository is broken

[Takayuki SHIMIZUKAWA]

New submission from Takayuki SHIMIZUKAWA :

Although document 
https://docs.python.org/3.6/distutils/packageindex.html#package-cmdoptions says 
"The --repository or -r option lets you specify a PyPI server different from 
the default", if there is no URL specified in ``.pypirc`` it will display 
"ValueError:  not found in .pypirc".

  $ lsb_release -a
  No LSB modules are available.
  Distributor ID: Ubuntu
  Description:Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
  Release:16.04
  Codename:   xenial

This behavior could be confirmed on Windows.

I think there are two correction methods.
One is to fix it so that we can specify any URL regardless of the setting of 
.pypirc.
The other is to write in the document that "-r option can specify server name 
or URL in .pypirc".
