Thanks, I've updated the build step and LICENSES. [2]

[2] https://github.com/AladW/community/commit/a48ba9a3ff917b596d89748a3a69e4f39e4b4398

Note that I installed the license to /usr/share/licenses/python-i3-py,
as python-i3-py is the common pkgbase. The PKGBUILD guidelines [3]
however mention to use pkgname - and namcap issues a warning
accordingly. Do these guidelines account for split packages?

python-i3-py-examples E: Missing custom license directory
(usr/share/licenses/python-i3-py-examples)
