-       Earlier versions of setuptools implemented the ``attr:`` directive by
-       importing the module, but setuptools 46.4.0 added rudimentary AST
-       analysis so that ``attr:`` can function without having to import any of
-       the package's dependencies.
+       As of the release of setuptools 61.0.0, one can specify the
+       version dynamically in the project's :file:`pyproject.toml` file.
 
-       Also, please be aware that declarative config indicators, including the
-       ``attr:`` directive, are not supported in parameters to ``setup.py``.
