  Description     : Extra Python Collections - bags, setlists, RangeMap 
and IndexedDict

collections_extended is a pure Python module with no dependencies providing:

  * a bag class, also known as multiset,
  * a setlist class, which is a unique list or ordered set,
  * a bijection class, RangeMap which is a mapping from ranges to values,
  * a IndexedDict class, which is an ordered mapping whose elements can 
be accessed using index, in addition to key.

 There are also frozen (hashable) varieties of bags and setlists.

collections-extended is a dependency of tahoe-lafs. As of 2.0.2, the 
package is not compatible with Python 3.11 [1] which is a blocker to get 
it into Debian.
