`Error: failed to parse manifest` when using the workspace inheritance feature from Rust 1.64

[printfn]

🐛 Bug description

I set up the my Cargo.toml files to use the workspace inheritance feature from Rust 1.64, which resulted in this error:

$ wasm-pack build --target no-modules --out-dir ../web/pkg
Error: failed to parse manifest: /Users/printfn/Code/fend/wasm/Cargo.toml
Caused by: invalid type: map, expected a string for key `package.description`

Compiling the same project with cargo build works fine, so this error must be specific to wasm-pack.

🤔 Expected Behavior

I would've expected the Cargo.toml file to be parsed correctly.

👟 Steps to reproduce

Workspace Cargo.toml:

[workspace]
members = ["cli", "core", "wasm"]

[workspace.package]
version = "1.1.0"
description = "Arbitrary-precision unit-aware calculator"
# ...

Wasm Cargo.toml:

[package]
name = "fend-wasm"
version.workspace = true
description.workspace = true
# ...

This commit shows the diff between the Cargo.toml files.

I can reproduce with a similar environment setup.

[martinfrances107]

The original issue identified problems with name, version, description

[package]
name = "fend-wasm"
version.workspace = true
description.workspace = true

I want to extent this list to "license" and "repository"

[martinfrances107]

Sorry for the distraction my commented above need to be corrected

after reading, the doc more carfully

"license" and "repository" are not on the list....

https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-package-table

authors	categories
description	documentation
edition	exclude
homepage	include
keywords	license
license-file	publish
readme	repository
rust-version	version

[printfn]

@martinfrances107: Yes they are in the list, in the second column.

This is the full list of attributes that can be referenced from a workspace as of Rust 1.64: authors, categories, description, documentation, edition, exclude, homepage, include, keywords, license, license-file, publish, readme, repository, rust-version and version.

Of those, only description, license, license-file, repository and homepage seem to result in this bug, while setting the other attributes in the workspace root works fine.
