Comment (by jmroot):

 There isn't a single solution for all packages, but in most cases it
 should be fine to use pep517. In this case they're still using setuptools
 as the backend though, so I wouldn't be surprised if the missing version
 metadata still caused issues somewhere.

 The seemingly widespread belief that "just use pip" is a sufficient
 solution for packagers is troublesome, but that's a different bug. :)
