It's also registered in PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/theonionbox/ with
its source distribution ('sdist') uploaded there.

Porting python packages is relatively straight forward, particular those
that use standard Python ecosystem mechanisms (distutils/setuptools,
etc). This looks fairly straightforward at a quick glance to port.

Dependencies are listed in setup.py:install_requires [1] which
correspond to RUN_DEPENDS

If some of the dependencies aren't in ports, they'll need porting first.

Some Python specific porting guidelines to help:

questions or need help.
