  Description     : a library meant to help people understand how
their memory is being used in Python.

Meliae is similar to heapy (in the 'guppy' project), in its attempt to
understand how memory has been allocated.

Meliae is a currently a dependency of tribler ( #836852 )

looks like meliae used to be in debian
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1000548
is the bug report that removed it, claiming some 3.9 FTBFS bug
is it https://bugs.launchpad.net/meliae/+bug/1899379 ?

it also does seem to be still falling to others to maintain also
https://bugs.launchpad.net/meliae/+bug/1498436

copying the debian directory from oldstable into the new trunk from
launchpad ( most recently updated earlier this year )
https://salsa.debian.org/themusicgod1-guest/meliae
doesn't quite build, runs into some kind of problem with pip/cython
where it looks for python 2.7 (perhaps it's in the cython code hard
coded somewhere? )

hopefully this helps
