the package dates from 2018, so it would be good to drop it...
Its only dependent is hydrus-network; is this the package you are
interested in? It has been added in 2022 and then never touched again.
My impression is that python-pylzma can simply be dropped from its inputs,
at least newer versions mark explicitly that they do not need it.
However, then a test fails since our v495 of hydrus-network does not build
with a newer Python. The problem has been corrected in v519, but then a
different test fails:
test_import (hydrus.test.TestClientDB.TestClientDB.test_import) ... Warning:

Going to the most recent version is also not an easy option, since the
source code has changed so much that it would require changes to our
package.
So after spending quite some time on the package, my hunch would rather
be to make a removal request on Codeberg, which leaves one month for
someone to repair it.
