Yeah, I've been quite busy lately and I was unable to work on this package. 
Sorry for not replying, I didn’t have time back then and then I forgot 🙂

It would be great if you could get the Rust team involved, as the majority of 
the dependencies should go in there. I started packaging dependencies for the 
non-next-Fractal back in the day, but the crypto stuff (for secret-service) was 
taking ages to get through NEW, which is why I gave up at some point.
