conda package for kafka-python-ng

[here-abarany]

In addition to the PyPi kafka-python package, there is also a kafka-python conda package. We have an internal Python package that depends on kafka-python that I'm trying to push to move to kafka-python-ng for Python 3.12 support, but they also require conda packages.

Would it be possible to push up a kafka-python-ng package to conda-forge?

Sure, I'd be willing to help. I'm a bit absorbed by some other things at the moment but I'll read up on the process in the background in https://github.com/conda-forge/staged-recipes.

Well, that was easy: conda-forge/staged-recipes#25736

@wbarnha thanks for setting that up, looks like it's getting close. Do you think you'll be able to get the package published by the end of the week?

[wbarnha]

Admittedly my schedule is a bit wonky. If you would like to assist, please feel free and I will make sure it gets released ASAP!

I can take a look to see if I can figure out what's going on. I admit I don't have any experience with conda myself (I'm just forwarding the requirements of the team that manages this internal package that's blocked on updating), but I may be able to catch something you've missed. I'll add any comments related to that on the PR for the new recipe.
