import importlib.metadata

# The package metadata required can be missing when running pytest directly. One
# possible workaround is:
#
# cd west && pipx install -e . && pipx uninstall west
#
# This cycle leaves behind a `west/src/west.egg-info/PKG-INFO` file which is enough.
# `pip install --break-system-packages ...` can achieve the same result but with more
# disruption than pipx.
