Quack,

Sorry for the lag, I really lacked time and energy recently but I'll try to upload a fix soon.

You're right and I did not realize nocheck would be used for real in this package. I never saw this as a perfect solution but until debcargo implements what's needed that seemed fine.

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/greetd/-/merge_requests/4

It looks fine but that's precisely what I wanted to avoid: I do not want to maintain the build steps and have to update the calls and flags when cargo or any other piece of tooling changes. Maybe that won't change often but that's still silly to implement that in each and every leaf package and as a consequence there's no unified policy.
Unfortunately I do not have the bandwidth to propose debcargo changes.

So I guess I'll apply the patch you kindly provided but I'm thinking about handing over the maintainership of wlgreet and greetd to people who really have time to do it properly, or… maybe comaint.

Anyway, thanks for the report and patch everyone.
