Hello Ankur:
> Yes. I think that would be better.
Well...I'm not sure right now if it is better to package them separately,
because this version of tint2 has a config tool, called tint2conf, which once
opened it uses tintwizard.py to configure the theme.
You can package them separately, and add a dependancy on tintwizard in the tint
package? That way, tint2 will install tintwizard as a separate package on
installation.
It's not advised to package two different programs into one package, even if
they're only used for each other.
An illustration:
What if tintwizard has a new release, but tint doesn't? You'll have to push an
update for the tint package as a whole ( a larger update for nuts ).
But coming back to the license issue...is it not allowed to use a
combination
of 2 licenses in a single package? Could you please clarify this to me? Because
in [1] says we can. If this is the case, I can package tint2 and tintwizard.py
together without any problem.

Yes, you can have multiple Licenses. Since I'm still for two separate packages,
this isn't relevant here.

Certainly I could suggest upstream to add a man page for tintwizard.py, but I
don't think it is essential here because it is only a warning and to write a
man page could take a long time...
Ankur, again many thanks for your time, and I would like you to clarify my
doubts in order to go on with this package.

German.
A man page is suggested, you can always add it later and push an update. Please
do request upstream to get started on it though.
regards,
Ankur
