The `lockfile` package (version 0.12.2) provides a platform-independent API for locking files across Unix and Windows, relying on atomic system calls like `link` (Unix) and `mkdir` (Windows). This package is **deprecated**, with its last release in November 2015. Users are strongly advised to use alternatives like `fasteners` or `oslo.concurrency` for file locking needs.
