No license file is currently delivered with the package sources.
You can see on "pypi.org" that it is under MIT license though.
I asked confirmation to the author & we might get a license
file in a next release. Here's a copy of that email:

Hello,

I just pushed a contribution to "Buildroot",
a tool to generate embedded linux image easily,
to have your package available in the general interface.

I saw on "pypi.org" that your package is under MIT license,
that is what I declared in Buildroot. However,
since no license file is provided, the license verification is turned off.

* Can you confirm your package is under MIT license?
* Do you plan on delivering a license file in the next release

Thank you

We looked at this package, and upstream has not made any release since
2014, and there is apparently no publicly available version control
system. With python moving so fast, a package that hasn't been touched
since 2014 doesn't seem like a good idea.

So I'll mark this patch as Rejected. If you have a reason to think this
is still maintained, could you provide some more details?

Best regards,

Thomas

Hello Thomas,
Please discard this package.
I thought it was a requirement for ntpsec that i was about to submit at the
time.
But it turns out ntpsec does not require it, or at least, not in modern
versions
