PyPi versioning

Newbie here. I've created my first Python package and I managed to register it on Pypi, as well as upload the tar.gz file. Now whenever I want to run:

pip install myPackage

I get this error in console:

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement myPackage (from versions: 1.0dev)
No distributions matching the version for flashCardStudy
Storing debug log for failure in /Users/xxx/Library/Logs/pip.log

I believe this is because my version is development version I guess? So yeah, I can install it by adding --pre argument but what I'd really like is to turn it into a normal version so to speak.

I've tried figuring out how to do it and looking at some docs but I can't still figure it out. In my setup.py my version is set to '1.0' so I don't see where to problem is. If anyone wants to have a look at the file, here it is.

So I found the problem. I used utility called Paster which generates package structure, including setup.py and setup.cfg files among others. My utility hasn't been updated in a while and meanwhile submission rules to PyPi have changed. It now requires certain setup.py structure and unless it passes via pip, it's labeled as development version - which pip does not install without --pre argument.

So I just went to PyPi pages and looked at setup.py tutorial, did it their way and now it works.
