There is some confusion here - is the link in the README.md correct?

If I do pip install tofu, it pulls in a different package from
https://github.com/ToFuProject/tofu

When I try to build ufo-kit/tofu, I get errors that a UFO namespace is
missing in GObject which needs the ufo-core C++ package to be
installed.

Which ToFu is required?
