    Hi all,

    I have encountered more and more packages that uses pdm-pep517 as build backend. Looking at [1], existing packages in Debian added patches to manually switch to other backends, such as Poetry.

    I am wondering if it's time to package pdm-pep517 itself [2], or is there
    any blocking for it. I am aware that some sort of bootstrapping might be needed since pdm-pep517 seems to build-depends on itself. Besides that,
    what
    about packaging of pdm? Please correct me if needed: my mind and my
    packaging work is still stuck in the old times of setup.py, and I just started to look into the new ecosystem of pep517. Thanks!

    As an update, I also pushed pdm package [3] as well as several of its build- dependencies into the NEW queue.

    Nice!

    As I'm sure people will confuse "python3-pdm" (the cli tool) and "python3-pdm-pep517" (the tool used to build packages), I've created a
    Lintian tag:
