Even if I wipe the feed directory I still get this error. :(

If I try to read in the atom feed, all I get are bunch of borked RST files with a bunch of raw statements.

The point of a static engine is this isn't supposed to be hard. It's supposed to be easy.

After two hours of this, I'm considering writing a super-simple Flask system deployed on Zappa/AWS Lambda that reads in my existing RST files and publishes according to the current site architecture.

It's writing the same file twice for some reason.

Yup. That's why I tried to wipe the feed directory. And block reading of XML by Pelican.
