Replacement for the gone gpgme Python library?

[Sebastian Wagner]

Dear gnupg community

what is the correct replacement for the gone gpgme library?
https://pypi.org/project/gpgme/
which has vanished somewhere between June 10th and June 18th

The library published as gpg (https://pypi.org/project/gpgme/) is not a 
replacement as that itself depends on the deleted gpgme (or is broken 
itself):

|     import gpg
| 
/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.14/x64/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpg/__init__.py:101: 
in <module>
|     from . import core
| 
/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.14/x64/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpg/core.py:34: 
in <module>
|     from . import gpgme
| E   ImportError: cannot import name 'gpgme' from partially initialized 
module 'gpg' (most likely due to a circular import) 
(/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.14/x64/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpg/__init__.py)

The error message is a bit different on 3.13:

|     import gpg
| 
/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.13.1/x64/lib/python3.13/site-packages/gpg/__init__.py:101: 
in <module>
|     from . import core
| 
/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.13.1/x64/lib/python3.13/site-packages/gpg/core.py:34: 
in <module>
|     from . import gpgme
| 
/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.13.1/x64/lib/python3.13/site-packages/gpg/gpgme.py:13: 
in <module>
|     from . import _gpgme
| E   ImportError: dynamic module does not define module export function 
(PyInit__gpgme)

best regards
