Hi, This was discussed with Nadzeya in-person, but here's a summary for the record.
I will be rejecting this package from the NEW queue. IMHO, librust-hwlib-dev is not only useless, but actively harmful. As it stands, it *looks* like a normal debcargo package, but it's not part of that ecosystem. That means that any normal consumer of librust* packages will have nasty surprises when trying to resolve the dependencies. OTOH, any *other* prospective user of this specific dependency will have to vendor the rest of their Rust crates, and tooling does *not* support this hybrid scenario. As discussed, the one known user of this as a library would be the pro client, but since that's a Python program, my advice would be to actually build and provide the Python bindings *from* the rust-hwlib source package. That way, the Pro folks don't have to worry about Rust and can just focus on using the thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2072561 Title: [MIR] rust-hwlib To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/2072561/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
