Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment:

For #8668 (develop command), higery has written code that reuses 
install_distinfo to create the dist-info dir in the build dir.  It requires 
#12344, which I will commit when Thomas has time to finish his patch.  We also 
need to make install_distinfo more flexible: For example, on #12279 we 
discussed about the RECORD file, which should be empty when created by the test 
command (nothing is installed), and we mentioned RESOURCES, which should 
probably be created, with relative paths.  (The resources API is intended to 
work with zero config in a source checkout or unpacked tarball, even though it 
currently doesn’t, but given that test runs in the build dir, we’re not in the 
source dir anymore, so RESOURCES should probably be written.)
