Thanks a lot for your effort and the initiative, I really appreciate the idea. I also apologize for my harsh wording in the heated the discussion we had. I'm very glad that this - as it is always the case in Debian - is leading to a productive solution. Great! > Currently, the packaging builds the same binary package names as > src:librsvg.

The problem that we have is that it's not possible to upload a package to Debian which does not build any binaries on the release architectures, the archive would be removed from the archive immediately. I assume what we could do is maybe have a package that is built from multiple sources so that it builds different binary packages for the Rust and non-Rust targets. I have CC'ed James Clarke and Adrian Bunk who might be interested in this discussion as well and probably can maybe help in the process. Again, thanks a lot for the efforts and sorry for my heated and unprofessional behavior. Thanks a lot! Adrian -- .''`.
