Hi,

First of all, IANAL.

As I commented in a similar bug in Ubuntu [1], while the fix for this
issue is available upstream and seems technically straightforward, it
injects a deprecated python module in its code base and re-licenses it
as CC0. The PSF license suggests "that PSF's License Agreement and PSF's
notice of copyright [...] are retained in Python alone or in any
derivative version" and that "in the event Licensee prepares a
derivative work that is based on or incorporates Python or any part
thereof [...], then Licensee hereby agrees to include in any such work a
brief summary of the changes made to Python."
