This package is required by python-faker which is currently broken, for example:

 Problem 1: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides python3.7dist(text-unidecode) = 1.2 needed by python3-faker-1.0.2-1.fc30.noarch
 Problem 2: package python3-factory-boy-2.11.1-4.fc30.noarch requires python3.7dist(faker) >= 0.7.0, but none of the providers can be installed
  - package python3-factory-boy-2.11.1-4.fc30.noarch requires python3-faker, but none of the providers can be installed
  - conflicting requests
  - nothing provides python3.7dist(text-unidecode) = 1.2 needed by python3-faker-1.0.2-1.fc30.noarch

Just realized that this project's license is in the list of licenses incompatible with Fedora: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main?rd=Licensing#Bad_Licenses
"Artistic 1.0 (original)"

The project README mentions: "This port is licensed under Artistic License and supports Python 2.7 and 3.3+. If you're OK with GPL, use unidecode (it has better memory usage and better transliteration quality)."

I've added a comment to an existing issue in upstream python faker: https://github.com/joke2k/faker/issues/727
