Custom Conda Package Metadata Not Being Pushed
I have a Python library I created that I have as a Conda package. Although I made sure to include all the metadata fields, when the package is installed on the system none of the details are available, i.e. description, home, etc.
The package install is successful, however, I would like for the user to see the metadata. I have tried inputting simple dummy values as well with no luck. The only values that seem to come across are the name (lafpy) and version (0.3.1).
Below is the code from my setup.py and meta.yaml files. I also included the resulting METADATA file in the dist-info folder that was created during the package installation.

return open(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), fname)).read()

The Lands and Forestry Python Library, herein referred to as lafpy, was created as a way to centralize the
entire Forestry Division Python code-base into a convenient distributable package. The library contains
modules for use mainly within the ArcGIS Pro Python 3x environment and should not be used with Python 2x.

I have checked Anaconda Navigator and no metadata is populated. I have looked at the dist-info folder, and the metadata is filled in properly in the METADATA and License.txt files. What am I doing wrong?
I am assuming that this issue would have nothing to do with the fact that I am pulling the package from a custom Conda channel on a shared network drive?
Where does Anaconda Navigator pull the metadata from for the description?
I know that the description for the Python Package Manager comes from ..\envs\arcgispro-py3-clone\pkg-metadata\metadata.json and would like to know if there is a way to update that.
I need to distribute the package to my users, and I know that I may be a bit obsessive with the metadata since the install actually works, but it would be nice to do this properly.
Thanks,
René
