According to the packaging guide this namespace style is also obsolete: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/packaging-namespace-packages/#legacy-namespace-packages
The broader question here would be: are there other paste python distributions that share the namespace and thus should be migrated together?
As a temporal solution maybe https://pypi.org/project/horse-with-no-namespace/ works to patch the problem, though it mentions pkg_resources style namespaces not pkgutil namespaces

I'm not 100% sure if we need some guiding to setuptools to discover the code as we are not using a src layout model here, according to https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/packaging-namespace-packages/#native-namespace-packages the src layout allows automatic discovery of namespaces, while the flatten does not... but I guess you have tried it and CI is green, so 🤷🏾
