This package was split of from ruamel.yaml, so that ruamel.yaml can be
build as a universal wheel. Apart from the C code seldom changing, and
taking a long time to compile for all platforms, this allows
installation of the .so on Linux systems under /usr/lib64/pythonX.Y
(without a .pth file or a ruamel directory) and the Python code for
ruamel.yaml under /usr/lib/pythonX.Y.

For packaging purposes you can use a download of the [tar balls of tagged source](https://yaml.dev/ruamel-dl-tagged-releases)
