This package is a dependency of python-pytooling.

Unfortunately I belive https://github.com/BR1py/itertree/blob/3dfbc94059720b3395937b3f294f3a4585470c9b/LICENSE#L12 essentially means that this software is non-free. It highly likely has violated DFSG#6.

debian-legal mailing list if you are uncertain.

Best,
Boyuan Yang

Please let me know (and keep me CC-ed) if you have any response. Feel free to contact

Hi Boyuan,

Unfortunately this package is an upstream dependency package for many other packages that have ITPs. Hence, it's a very important package that needs to be in debian in order to package the rest of the packages.
