Subject: bug#72051: License compliance - pdbpp

Hi Guix bug wranglers,

It's come to my attention that pdbpp (pdb++) is a noncompliant
derivative of CPython code and cannot be legally distributed;
the package claims a BSD 3 Clause license but as a derivative
of CPython code must be PSL-2.0.

https://github.com/pdbpp/pdbpp/issues/529

This software is packaged in your repository as:

https://packages.guix.gnu.org/packages/python-pdbpp/

Please take any appropriate action to prevent further infringement
while upstream considers their response.
