  Description     : A Python library for accurately seperating the TLD from the registered domain or subdomains of a URL, using the Public Suffix List.

This library is a dependency for the python dns-lexicon library, which
is a requirement for a number of Certbot DNS plugins.
The relevant bug for the RFP for python-dns-lexicon is #888800.
This will allow dns-lexicon to be packaged, which will in turn allow a
number of Certbot DNS plugins to be packaged, which in turn will allow
users of a number of DNS providers to get wildcard certificates from
Let's Encrypt, when they activate ACME v2.
This package doesn't have a sponsor, but should be able to be maintained
by the normal python packaging team.
