Support passing dist-info-dir to bdist_wheel, enabling setuptools to handle prepare_metadata_for_build_wheel correctly as per PEP-517. Closes #611
I don't know what the implications of this if the metadata is wildly different - for example, within bdist_wheel there is a filename calculation - currently the metadata used for such calculations is from
egg-info
, not from the givendist-info
. For my case, that was good enough, and I wasn't able to find a satisfying hook to disableegg-info
calculation, and use that fordistribution
metadata. I would happily take advice on these.
