(Patch submitted by Giampaolo Rodolà in :issue:`10784`.)
packaging
---------
:mod:`distutils` has undergone additions and refactoring under a new name,
:mod:`packaging`, to allow developers to break backward compatibility.
:mod:`distutils` is still provided in the standard library, but users are
encouraged to transition to :mod:`packaging`. For older versions of Python, a
backport compatible with 2.4+ and 3.1+ will be made available on PyPI under the
name :mod:`distutils2`.
.. TODO add examples and howto to the packaging docs and link to them
