@dmitry_vk I don't mean "one true package", just an IR format. -
@dmitry_vk in an ideal world, making a .source-pkg would be as easy as `|sh` and source-pkg -> deb etc tooling would be in place. -
@dmitry_vk one of the major issues is an insistence by bureaucrats on maximum sharing even if it adds complexity. Not worth it for rust. -
@dmitry_vk we're not gonna waste time arguing about whether we should in principle be able to share LLVM or other not-totally-stable deps
