Has a discussion been had within the Debian python team and the
maintainers of the existing httpcore and httpx packages of which fork
they want to follow going forward?

(not a maintainer of the existing httpcore and httpx packages) I didn't even know these ones exist, I only knew about httpxyz.

But also neither httpx2 nor httpxyz provide `import httpx` (they expect you to import them `as httpx`), so I wouldn't expect the Debian packages provide that, so technically all of them can coexst, and
If that discussion hasn't occurred, it would be worth having to
determine if we should have a single httpx (or httpx2) package which
provides httpx2 (or httpx).

this, if done, would be against what the users expect.

See also:

https://httpxyz.org/httpx-compatibility/ (and what it does to sys.modules)

https://github.com/pydantic/httpx2/issues/963 (where the same is requested)

Finally, I've found https://tildeweb.nl/~michiel/httpx2.html where the author of httpxyz says "while we think httpxyz was definitely needed, we welcome httpx2 and think it should be the ‘blessed’ fork" so I don't think httpxyz should be considered.
