Description

setuptools installs packages as UNKNOWN even though they have name/version specified in pypackage.toml

Expected behavior

name/version from pyproject.toml is respected

How to Reproduce

Create a directory with a trivial pyproject.toml:

[project]
name = "dummy"
version = "0.0.1"

And then install it with pip3 install --user .

Output

pyproject.toml:

[project]
name = "dummy"
version = "0.0.1"

pip3 output:
