75.2.0

=======

Features
--------

- Made errors when parsing ``Distribution`` data more explicit about the expected type (``tuple[str, ...] | list[str]``) -- by :user:`Avasam` (4578)


Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a `TypeError` when a ``Distribution``'s old included attribute was a `tuple` -- by :user:`Avasam` (4578)
- Add workaround for ``bdist_wheel --dist-info-dir`` errors

75.1.1

=======

Bugfixes
--------

- Re-use pre-existing ``.dist-info`` dir when creating wheels via the build backend APIs (PEP 517) and the ``metadata_directory`` argument is passed -- by :user:`pelson`. (1825)
- Changed ``egg_info`` command to avoid adding an empty ``.egg-info`` directory
while iterating over entry-points.
This avoids triggering integration problems with ``importlib.metadata``/``importlib_metadata``
(reference: pypa/pyproject-hooks206). (4680)
