re: The package build instructions are rather strange. I've given up trying to compile anything written in rust since what "Rust" is changes every 3 months. Unless you're using a rolling distro, and even then, you're gonna have a hard time compiling $randomrustproject using repo compilers. There's no useful efforts for forwards compatibility and right now the dev userbase is still the type of people in love with bleeding edge.


It's strange because it's written to generate a debian package.

You can also use the normal rust build process that hasn't changed since v1.0: `cargo build --release`
