Comment (by ryandesign):

 Based on the conversation in that issue and the one of which it is a
 duplicate, the developer of this fork appears not to understand or
 possibly to care how licenses work. Unless the developer fixes the license
 of the fork to be LGPL-2.1-only, we should delete this port like other
 distributions are doing.

 The following ports depend on py-pynose but only as test dependencies:

 * py-minidb
 * py-olefile
 * py-overrides
 * py-pyrfc3339
 * py-smmap

 Their test suites could simply be disabled.
