- Update to v4.8.1
* #348: Restored support for EntryPoint access by item,
deprecating support in the process. Users are advised to use
direct member access instead of item-based access:
- ep[0] -> ep.name
- ep[1] -> ep.value
- ep[2] -> ep.group
- ep[:] -> ep.name, ep.value, ep.group

* #337: Rewrote EntryPoint as a simple class, still immutable
and still with the attributes, but without any expectation for
namedtuple functionality such as _asdict.
- Release v4.7.1
* #344: Fixed regression in packages_distributions when neither
top-level.txt nor a files manifest is present.
- Release v4.7.0
* #330: In packages_distributions, now infer top-level names
from .files() when a top-level.txt (Setuptools-specific
metadata) is not present.
- Release v4.6.4
* #334: Correct SimplePath protocol to match pathlib protocol
for __truediv__.
- Release v4.6.3
* Moved workaround for #327 to _compat module.
- Release v4.6.2
* bpo-44784: Avoid errors in test suite when DeprecationWarnings
are treated as errors.

* #327: Deprecation warnings now honor call stack variance on
PyPy.

* #326: Performance tests now rely on pytest-perf. To disable
these tests, which require network access and a git checkout,
pass -p no:perf to pytest.

implementations and issuing deprecation warnings for these
cases:
* EntryPoints objects are once again mutable, allowing for sort
() and other list-based mutation operations. Avoid deprecation
warnings by casting to a mutable sequence (e.g. list(dist.
entry_points).sort()).
* EntryPoints results once again allow for access by index. To
avoid deprecation warnings, cast the result to a Sequence
first (e.g. tuple(dist.entry_points)[0]).
- Release v4.3.1
* #320: Fix issue where normalized name for eggs was incorrectly
solicited, leading to metadata being unavailable for eggs.
- Release v4.3.0
* #317: De-duplication of distributions no longer requires
loading the full metadata for PathDistribution objects, entry
point loading performance by ~10x.
- Release v4.2.0
* Prefer f-strings to .format calls.
- Release v4.1.0
* #312: Add support for metadata 2.2 (Dynamic field).
* #315: Add SimplePath protocol for interface clarity in
PathDistribution.
- Release v4.0.1
* #306: Clearer guidance about compatibility in readme.
- Release v4.0.0
* #304: PackageMetadata as returned by metadata() and
Distribution.metadata() now provides normalized metadata
honoring PEP 566:
* If a long description is provided in the payload of the RFC
822 value, it can be retrieved as the Description field.
* Any multi-line values in the metadata will be returned as such.
* For any multi-line values, line continuation characters are
removed. This backward-incompatible change means that any
projects relying on the RFC 822 line continuation characters
being present must be tolerant to them having been removed.
* Add a json property that provides the metadata converted to a
JSON-compatible form per PEP 566.

* Minor tweaks from CPython.
- Release v3.10.0

* #297: Fix ValueError when entry points contains comments.
- Release v3.9.0
* Use of Mapping (dict) interfaces on SelectableGroups is now
flagged as deprecated. Instead, users are advised to use the
select interface for future compatibility.
* Suppress the warning with this filter: ignore:SelectableGroups
dict interface.
* Or with this invocation in the Python environment: warnings.
filterwarnings('ignore', 'SelectableGroups dict interface').
* Preferably, switch to the select interface introduced in

importlib_metadata (especially on Python 3.5 and earlier),
backports.entry_points_selectable was created to ease the
transition. Please have a look at that project if simply
relying on importlib_metadata 3.6+ is not straightforward.
Background in #298.
* #283: Entry point parsing no longer relies on ConfigParser and
instead uses a custom, one-pass parser to load the config,
resulting in a ~20% performance improvement when loading entry
points.
- Release v3.8.2
* #293: Re-enabled lazy evaluation of path lookup through a
FreezableDefaultDict.
- Release v3.8.1
* #293: Workaround for error in distribution search.
- Release v3.8.0
* #290: Add mtime-based caching for FastPath and its lookups,
dramatically increasing performance for repeated distribution
lookups.

* #131: Added ``packages_distributions`` to conveniently
resolve a top-level package or module to its distribution(s).
* #284: Introduces new ``EntryPoints`` object, a tuple of
``EntryPoint`` objects but with convenience properties for
selecting and inspecting the results:
- ``.select()`` accepts ``group`` or ``name`` keyword
parameters and returns a new ``EntryPoints`` tuple
with only those that match the selection.
- ``.groups`` property presents all of the group names.
- ``.names`` property presents the names of the entry points.
- Item access (e.g. ``eps[name]``) retrieves a single
entry point by name.
``entry_points`` now accepts "selection parameters",
same as ``EntryPoint.select()``.
``entry_points()`` now provides a future-compatible
``SelectableGroups`` object that supplies the above interface
but remains a dict for compatibility.
In the future, ``entry_points()`` will return an
``EntryPoints`` object, but provide for backward
compatibility with a deprecated ``__getitem__``
accessor by group and a ``get()`` method.
If passing selection parameters to ``entry_points``, the
future behavior is invoked and an ``EntryPoints`` is the
result.
Construction of entry points using
``dict([EntryPoint, ...])`` is now deprecated and raises
an appropriate DeprecationWarning and will be removed in
a future version.
