+* Fixed some consistency problems with namespace package module attributes.
+ Namespace module objects now have an ``__file__`` that is set to ``None``
+ (previously unset), and their ``__spec__.origin`` is also set to ``None``
+ (previously the string ``"namespace"``). See :issue:`32305`. Also, the

+ ``__loader__`` (previously, the former was set to ``None``). See
