Hi Arnd, Yes it's something that I would like to enable, though we first need to wait for all of kconfirm's dependencies to be available for these distributions. I've filed a GitHub issue for this in the repo of 'nom-kconfig': https://github.com/Mcdostone/nom-kconfig/issues/149#issuecomment-4480419622 Also note that the author of that library is CC'd on these emails: Yann Prono I will need to do some testing once all is available, but as far as I can tell, this would not create many additional problems, though we would still need to provide crates.io as a source for distributions that do not package Rust libraries. - Julian Braha
