+python3-pdm-pep517 (Legacy project for pdm-backend.)
+
+This is the backend for PDM projects that is fully-compatible with
+PEP 517 spec, but you can also use it alone. It reads the metadata
+of PEP 621 format and coverts it to Core metadata.
+
+This package is replaced by python3-pdm-backend, but may still be
+required for older python packages.
