I discussed this with Christian on IRC. The issue is that 2.0.8 introduced a hard dependency on Markdown 2.4.1 in order to ensure that 2.5 or later was not pulled in by easy_install on python 2.6 systems. Unfortunately, this does not play well with PaaS systems or other systems with a fixed Markdown version on them that is not *exactly* 2.4.1.
As discussed on IRC, it would be better if this requirement was different for different versions of python on the system. For systems with python 2.6, it should be set to >= 2.4, < 2.4.9999 and for python 2.7, just >= 2.4.
