namespace-pkg-util

Domain: Pure Python Packages

🎯 Motivation

The older pkgutil-style namespace packages, declared with __path__ = __import__('pkgutil').extend_path(__path__, __name__).

📋 Concrete Example

Putting that line in __init__.py lets multiple distributions contribute to one namespace package.

🔗 Analogy

pkgutil namespaces are a shared mailbox — multiple tenants receive mail under one address.
