Description

With tools that perform universal resolution instead of platform-specific resolution, such as uv, tools pick up 0.2.1.post1 instead of 0.2.1 for a >=0.2, <0.3 pin (or poetry's ^0.2) and then fail to install on most machines.

While this release is old and it has been fixed on newer versions, there are still a number of projects that depend on 0.2.x, which makes this problem show up here (https://github.com/plotly/Kaleido/issues/292) and regularly in the uv bug tracker (https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20kaleido). Would it be possible to yank 0.2.1.post1 to prevent this user confusion?
