Thank you for this. I don’t have to time to look at this myself at the moment, but tarzeau (cc'd) expressed some interest. -- Cheers, Andrej

If you want to follow my work more closely, then I can put up my fork of the git repo somewhere, but if you won't be looking closely anyway, then I will not bother setting that up, and instead simply shout out when I have something more substantially working. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: signature

Yes, I’m aware of that, that’s why I packaged it separately from the debcargo-conf-managed packages. Nevertheless, the dependencies can be managed using debcargo-conf workflow (and that’s what I did when I still had energy to spend on this package). In any case, I’ll be happy with any help that can be had with this package, whether it’s updating/packaging build dependencies as separate packages or by following the debcargo-conf workflow, and from anyone — you, Jonas, included :) Thanks! -- Cheers, Andrej

Bug#1056068: RFH: resvg -- SVG rendering library (command-line utility)
Package: wnpp Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: re...@packages.debian.org, debian-de...@lists.debian.org, Rust Maintainers Control: affects -1 + src:resvg Hi all, resvg is a command-line SVG renderer which I introduced to Debian back in 2019. Unfortunately, very soon after the initial upload the upstream has rewritten substantial parts of resvg, which resulted in it requiring build dependencies that were missing from Debian at that point. I tried to update resvg and upload the missing dependencies, but ultimately never completed that work, and resvg was removed from bookworm. Unfortunately, I cannot invest any more time into resvg at the moment, so I have to officially request assistance with maintaining the resvg package. To the Debian Rust team: if you can, please adopt this package. Thank you. The package description is: resvg is a command-line utility to render SVG files based on a static SVG Full 1.1 subset. It is a fast, small, portable, multiple backend SVG library designed for edge-cases. . resvg supports Cairo and Qt backends.
