I don't see why? Debian already ships libstd-rust-dev-windows as well
as gcc packages for tons of
random targets, but really I guess this is just #989844, then.
most such targets don't really have a clear mapping to Debian architectures,
and also no use case within Debian.
I'm a bit confused, does gcc-mingw-w64 or arm-none-eabi-gcc not have a use within debian? They're
used by tons of people to build binaries for other systems from an open source root of trust that
cares about deterministic builds. We happen to use the Debian rust packages for the same, and that
seems like a pretty common usecase given how prevalent use of the arm-none toolchains are.
the windows one is no longer built (by
default, the support is still there in case somebody needs it) because the
windows-cross toolchain it uses produces unreproducible output.
Huh, interesting. We haven't had that issue, though of course had to fight with `RUSTFLAGS` quite a
bit to get there.
