Wheel contains no dependency metadata when built via sdist
See original GitHub issueWhen I run python -m build on our project, the resulting wheel doesn’t contain any dependency metadata.
When I run python -m build --sdist --wheel it does.
Not sure if this is to do with using dynamic dependencies from a requirements.txt file or not.
build version 0.9.0 The project in question, for reference.

I think we established this was a build success, it caught a broken SDist mistake. 😃
I’m not sure a single package on PyPI does this (though I’ve seen a proposal for the manylinux one), certainly it’s not a problem in practice. But I do think this is why pip-tools and PDM have a harder time handling this.
