I saw this again, this is happening when we use the --summary option due to the use of fingerprints.generate in the src/summarycode/summarizer.py.

See https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/issues/3016#issuecomment-1397144996

hey, I am new to contributing. So, I need a little bit of help.

I have done some research and came to conclusion that the warning is generated by library Normality which is used in Fingerprints and it is here.

Also I have different solution based on it.

Using warnings.simplefilter("ignore") it will filter and ignore all the warnings
Using with warnings.catch_warnings(): warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", category=ICUWarning) this will ignore all the ICUwarning
Using warnings.simplefilter("ignore", ICUWarning) in global scope of summary

What should I do.

Also can you please assign this issue to me.
