In python/cpython#102217, the docs were changed for importlib.metadata. Some of those changes need to be backported here.

As I'm exploring backporting the changes, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to manage the consistency of the documentation across these two modes.

In particular:

  • Sphinx is disallowing duplicate object descriptions for "importlib_metadata". The object description introduced in CPython conflicts with the one generated in the API docs here.
  • There are lots of references to importlib_metadata/importlib.metadata that have to be kept locally-relevant.

For these reasons, I'm leaning toward just removing the documentation here and maintaining it solely in CPython.
