This package provides an API for querying the distutils metadata
written in the PKG-INFO file inside a source distriubtion (an sdist)
or a binary distribution (e.g., created by running bdist_egg). It
can also query the EGG-INFO directory of an installed distribution,
and the *.egg-info stored in a "development checkout" (e.g, created by
running setup.py develop).
