The meta package was shipping meta/tox_uv/__init__.py, creating a namespace conflict with tox-uv-bare's actual tox_uv package. When both packages are installed, Python might import the meta package's empty tox_uv instead of the bare package's full implementation, causing ModuleNotFoundError when the entry point tries to load tox_uv.plugin. Changed the meta package to ship tox_uv_meta/__init__.py instead, eliminating the namespace collision. This allows both packages to coexist safely. Fixes tox-dev#309

The meta
tox-uvpackage was shippingmeta/tox_uv/__init__.py, creating a namespace conflict withtox-uv-bare's actualtox_uvpackage. When both packages are installed (either from upgrade or manual installation), Python's import system might find the meta package's emptytox_uvmodule before the bare package's full implementation. 🐛This causes
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tox_uv.plugin'when tox tries to load the plugin via the entry point defined intox-uv-bare.The fix changes the meta package to ship
tox_uv_meta/__init__.pyinstead, using hatchling'sforce-includeto map the marker file to a non-conflicting namespace. This allows both packages to coexist safely - the meta package acts as a pure dependency wrapper without interfering with the actual implementation fromtox-uv-bare.Fixes #309
