[Python] Nexus repository manager as pip local server not working properly

A local nexus server has been setup as our pip local server. I'm trying to install a sample/test class (inherits) using the said local server. Uploading to the local server is successful, but installing using this command:

pip install -i http://<nexus-ip>:8081/repository/pypi-all/pypi inherits


Resulted to this:

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement inherits
(from versions: )
No matching distribution found for inherits


I also tried these commands, but the results are the same:

pip install inherits
pip install -i http://<nexus-ip>:8081/repository/pypi-all/pypi inherits-0.1
pip install -i http://<nexus-ip>:8081/repository/pypi-all/pypi inherits==0.1


Here're the contents of my ~/.pypirc:

[distutils]
index-servers =
nexus
pypi

[nexus]
username: my-username
password: mypassword
repository: http://<nexus-ip>:8081/nexus/repository/pypi-internal/

[pypi]
...


Here're the contents my ~/.config/pip/pip.conf

[global]
index = http://<nexus-ip>:8081/repository/pypi-all/pypi
index-url = http://<nexus-ip>:8081/repository/pypi-all/simple


As mentioned, uploading using below command is successful:

python setup.py sdist upload -r nexus


Response from the nexus server is here (i.e. signifies upload was successfull):

Contents of the setup.py are the basic details:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os
import sys

try:
from setuptools import setup
except ImportError:
from distutils.core import setup

requires = []

setup(
name = "inherits",
packages = ["inherits"],
version = '0.1',
description = 'Example inherits package',
#url = "",
#download_url = "",
author = "Jayson Pryde",
classifiers = [],
)


Any ideas on how to resolve this and make the pip install work? Thanks in advance!
