Hello again,

Confirmed that it's /usr/share/bumblebee-status/utility.

After doing that, I discovered that almost all of the tests are faulty 
(at least on Python 3.10), so I've disabled tests altogether for now.

the terms Expat and X11 to be separate and not to use the term MIT.
I was used to the way the Rust team does things, which uses MIT.
