pip: Misleading error message when using PEP 517 and editable installs
I still cannot install a directory with a pyproject.toml and no setup.py (Poetry package.)
Directory '/path/to/project' is not installable. File 'setup.py' not found.
What am I doing wrong?

None, I was going off what I recalled being said in the PEP 517 discussions. Things seem to have moved on, which is good, but it would still need a new PEP to standardise the interface for editable installs between build frontends and backends. And as I said, there are no plans for that at the moment.
