Library to access the metadata for a Python package.
This package supplies third-party access to the functionality of
including improvements added to subsequent Python versions.
Compatibility

into CPython. The following table indicates which versions of this library
were contributed to different versions in the standard library:

Usage
=====
for usage details.
`Finder authors
also add support for custom package installers. See the above documentation
for details.

tools (or other conforming packages). It does not support:
- Packages in the stdlib.
- Packages installed without metadata.
