[BUG] pyproject.toml is packaged and later installed in site-packages root

[kribesk]

Steps to reproduce:

$ pip install pycln
...
$ cat .../lib/python3.11/site-packages/pyproject.toml | grep name
name = "pycln"

Expected behavior:

pyproject.toml should not be packaged at all! Python packages (wheels) already contain metadata.

I see you want to use package metadata in your code. Please use builtin tools designed for this task instead of hacking python and messing up users' site-packages:

from importlib.metadata import metadata

package = 'pycln'  # or pycln.__name__ to be explicit
meta = metadata(package)
name, version = meta.get('Name', package), meta.get('Version', '0.0.0')

print(f'{name} v{version}')
