What is pycryptodomex and how does it differ from pycryptodome? : <p>Today I saw PySNMP installing pycryptodomex. The <code>x</code> in that name looked suspicious and surprising.</p>

<p>I tried to track it down, but it looks like both <a href="https://pypi.org/project/pycryptodome" rel="noreferrer">pycryptodome</a> and <a href="https://pypi.org/project/pycryptodomex" rel="noreferrer">pycryptodomex</a> are owned by the same account and point back to the <a href="https://github.com/Legrandin/pycryptodome" rel="noreferrer">same Github repository</a>.</p>

<p>Especially because a cryptography library is a core security feature, I'm suspicious of the duplication.</p>

<p>What's the purpose of this duplication? Could I have discovered this information from open sources?</p>
