I cannot reproduce the install problem here. Installing Docutils 0.22.1 with pip into a
new created venv worked without problem, despite the spurious file.

What is the OS?
Which command was used for the install? 
If you used pip,  run it with increased verbosity and share the details:

    pip install <package-name> --verbose

You may consider removing the spurious file 

    /docutils-0.22.1/docutils/.__init__.py.swp

from the wheel or tar.gz archive (or manually unpacking and then removing) and trying again.

Hello, when I install `docutil` v0.22.1, I got an error

```
  docutils-0.22.1/docutils/__init__.py: Failed to restore metadata: File exists
  tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
  Error: Failure while executing; `/usr/bin/env tar --extract --no-same-owner --file /Users/brew/Library/Caches/Homebrew/downloads/88b03c744685105eccb97d4a6655d840b7fed55a81342d1432838845ab291c6f--docutils-0.22.1.tar.gz --directory /private/tmp/homebrew-unpack-20250917-6599-dbea5b` exited with 1. Here's the output:
```

Some other package depending on this also occur same error.
Can you check?
