My work uses github packages for other languages but my division which uses python can't do it and now it seems we never will. We use aws codeartifact which does a solid job and poetry codeartifact auth to handle auth tokens easily when pulling private packages. Doesn't play well with github actions though.
When you pip install or poetry add a Python package distribution by name, the name is looked up in an index, and a corresponding file is downloaded from that index's package repository. For most users, that index is the public PyPI index, but you can also host a private index containing packages your organization/business has developed for its own needs. GitHub offers this kind of hosting for Node.js JavaScript packages and Ruby Gems, but they've scrapped their plan to have Python packages as well. This would have fit in well with their commercial GitHub Actions offerings.
