  Description     : C-API of the Python RapidFuzz package, used to build rapidfuzz

 This package provides the C API of RapidFuzz. It can be used inside
 `pyproject.toml` to compile an extension module extending RapidFuzz.
 Providing this C API in a separate package simplifies the build process.
 .
 This package is only needed for building packages such as python3-rapidfuzz
 and python3-jarowinkler; it is not needed at runtime.

This is a dependency of python3-rapidfuzz and python3-jarowinkler,
string-matching packages which are new (recursive) dependencies of the
latest upstream release of python3-textdistance.

This package will be maintained within the Python Packaging Team.
