def optional_package(name, trip_msg=None):
    """ Return package-like thing and module setup for package `name`

    Parameters
    ----------
    name : str
        package name
    trip_msg : None or str
        message to give when someone tries to use the return package, but we
        could not import it, and have returned a TripWire object instead.
        Default message if None.

    Returns
    -------
    pkg_like : module or ``TripWire`` instance
        If we can import the package, return it.  Otherwise return an object
        raising an error when accessed
    have_pkg : bool
        True if import for package was successful, false otherwise
    module_setup : function
        callable usually set as ``setup_module`` in calling namespace, to allow
        skipping tests.

    Examples
    --------
    Typical use would be something like this at the top of a module using an
    optional package:

    >>> from nibabel.optpkg import optional_package
    >>> pkg, have_pkg, setup_module = optional_package('not_a_package')

    Of course in this case the package doesn't exist, and so, in the module:

    >>> have_pkg
    False

    and

    >>> pkg.some_function() #doctest: +IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    TripWireError: We need package not_a_package for these functions, but ``import not_a_package`` raised an ImportError

    If the module does exist - we get the module

    >>> pkg, _, _ = optional_package('os')
    >>> hasattr(pkg, 'path')
    True

    Or a submodule if that's what we asked for

    >>> subpkg, _, _ = optional_package('os.path')
    >>> hasattr(subpkg, 'dirname')
    True

    # fromlist=[''] results in submodule being returned, rather than the top
