hope it goes smoothly

I’ve started using #rust for work, after decades of C/C++. Overall I like it, even if some of the syntax is overly clever. This move is a Good Thing by for the future of #Debian and friends.

great news ! I am a c++ dev, but I need more and more rust tools (#typst), and it will be fantastic to have it throught apt.

What sort of sticky, tricky politics will ensue, setting the technical merits of Rust aside?

great, now even my package manager is partisan.
I personally don't like the idea of someone who views their coding language as a tool for political activism writing deps for my core system. Free backdoors for all.
