--- Comment #27 from Eric Sandeen <[email protected]> ---
I think there are 2 issues here related to the vendoring business. (with the
caveat that I'm a complete rust n00b, and know very little about how Fedora is
approaching it.)

The first issue is the forked bindgen; for now, there is no way around that I
think. Packaging the forked version w/ bcachefs-tools seems to be the
straightforward solution for now.

The second issue is all the other crate dependencies. I *think* Fedora prefers
to have those crates packaged as separate RPMs, and in fact some of them (or
all of them? I haven't looked) already are. I was not able to sort out how to
get the bcachefs-tools RPM build to use them, but somebody in Fedora-land must
know.

Kent has expressed displeasure at the idea of using separately packaged crates
for the build, but the truth is if it's an OS packaging policy, there's not a
lot upstream can do about that. (Conversation and input, sure, but in the end,
the OS will have a policy that upstream may or may not agree with.)
