Suspicious link to Python library #15

Description

@cptwunderlich

On the site, under "Interfaces and ports:", there is a link called "Python".
This links to https://pypi.python.org/pypi/org.keyphrene

Quote from the page:

org.keyphrene is a Python binding for LibSSH2 and OpenSSL libraries. Includes:yEnc coder and decoder, hunspell, Xapian, GeoIP, Par2, tidy

Interesting combination.
Last release: 2008

The website https://www.keyphrene.com/ also looks very sus.

It seems like there is currently no consensus around Python packages for Hunspell. Many are very much out of date and unmaintained, but new ones have popped up since.
I would just use this link: https://pypi.org/search/?q=hunspell

Alternatively, here are some suggestions:
https://pypi.org/project/chunspell/ - up-to-date, but 6 Github stars
https://pypi.org/project/cyhunspell-py310/ -- chunspell is a fork of this. It's almost up-to-date, 66 GH stars, seems unmaintained
Or https://pypi.org/project/hunspell/ -- with 190 stars, this used to be more popular, but it is outdated, unmaintained, probably doesn't work with hunspell 1.7
