Hello Eric!

Did you get a chance to work on this ITP? Are there missing dependencies?

It may be interesting to wait until
https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/issues/357 is fixed. There was some progress
recently.

Hi Félix.

I’m not really into Rust nor Rust packaging in Debian, could you elaborate a bit more on why Debian requires Alacritty to be hosted on crates.io? According to the discussion in alacritty#357 [1], upstream can’t or won't publish to crates.io.

It seems that there hasn't been any progress on this RFP/ITP since 2017, is there any way one can help (I couldn't find any repo on salsa)?

Hi Johan,

Debian Rust team uses debcargo to package rust crates. As far as I know, it 
needs the crates to be on crates.io. See the README.md on 
https://salsa.debian.org/rust-team/debcargo/

While I don't know much about alacritty, I just happended to notice that
the underlying issue might have been resolved a couple of days ago:

Hi,

I noticed that someone is publishing DEB packages for this on Github, is 
there any way that could help get this into the official repositories?

I've started working on getting dependencies updated/packaged, but it's
too late in this release cycle to get everything done.  Effort is better
spent right now trying to ensure we have a quick release.

I'll continue this once Bullseye is released.

Cheers,

alacritty-terminal, alacritty-config-derive, and vte have been
updated/packaged.  Starting to work through the rest of alacritty's
direct dependencies.

Remaining dependencies that need to be packaged:

glutin → winit → smithay-client-toolkit → calloop
      ⤷ glutin_glx_sys

Hopefully will be able to make it through this in the next few weeks
(based on NEW speed).

All dependencies have made it through NEW!  Just need to clean up the
alacritty package and get it uploaded.
