Presumably, matching the metadata, this is published under the Python Software Foundation License, but no COPYING / LICENSE file is available. Could you add one?

The license is stated - https://github.com/testing-cabal/linecache2/blob/master/setup.cfg#L13

Why do you want a COPYING/LICENSE file?

Metadata about a license is not necessarily trustable as the legalcode itself. For example, if someone puts down "BSD", there are many variants of the BSD license. Distributing the legalcode with the project itself is key to good software freedom hygeine.

No license file makes for a lot of failing builds for people using FOSS checks in CI.
