License review: text-unidecode (Artistic + GPL) #359

Description

@cassidyjames

text-unidecode is a transitive production dependency pulled in by faker (which is in the common dependency group). Its PyPI metadata lists Artistic License, GPL, and GPL v2+.

text-unidecode was originally created as an alternative to unidecode (see #354) to provide similar Unicode transliteration under a more permissive license, but its own metadata still lists GPL. Worth reviewing the actual license terms to determine whether it is usable in Osprey.

Options:

  • Review and approve the license if it is acceptable
  • Pin faker to a version that doesn't depend on text-unidecode, or replace faker if it's not critical to production

Tracked here to unblock the license-check CI workflow, which currently skips this package pending a decision.
