Your question:
It looks like the release of pip
24.2 at the end of July introduced a more strict version of pip check
:

And this can cause issues with some packages. Has there been any discussions about guiding maintainers on how to deal with this since I'm guessing there will be a lot of misconfigured metadata upstream?
The current solution seems to be patching or disabling pip check
.

I have hit several of these. The issue in my experience has always been fixed by adding a constraint to python in the offending package. Unfortunately, the error message, XXXX is not supported on this platform
, isn't very intuitive.
