+The MetadataResponse type has been moved to @backstage/plugin-permission-common
+to match the recent move of MetadataResponseSerializedRule, and should be
+imported from there going forward. To avoid an immediate breaking change, this
+type is still re-exported from this package, but is marked as deprecated and
+will be removed in a future release.
