pypi long-description isn't rendering properly

See original GitHub issue

We tried to fix this in #304, but for some reason it isn’t rendering on pypi properly:

@mgedmin says some other projects had a similar problem, and it turned out to be a broken version of twine used for the upload. I use twine, but I think I upgraded to the current twine-1.12.1 just before making the upload for magic-wormhole-0.11.0 .

Ok, 0.11.2 is up, and pypi looks correct now.

Thanks for chasing that one down! I would never have thought about the system’s python getting an old version of wheel as being the problem.

Ahh… yes, I used /usr/bin/python for that, and my debian “stretch” box had python-wheel-0.29.0 installed from .deb . I’ll update my notes to use a local (virtualenv) python instead, which will have a newer wheel.
