# `missing-prerequisite-for-pyproject-backend`

`pybuild` now supports building with PEP-517 standard interfaces natively. These sources could be built using `pybuild`'s generic `pyproject` plugin and the named build backend.

Please declare both named prerequisites in `Build-Depends`. You will need both the generic `pybuild-plugin-pyproject` as well as the specific one to the named backend. It is usually `python3-${backend}`.

No changes are required if you are using `pybuild`'s dedicated `flit` plugin, although that plugin will eventually be deprecated in favor of the generic `pyproject` plugin mentioned above.

Severity: | `info`
Experimental: | `false`
