Hi Daniele, I've mostly finished the packaging of starship and built a deb out of it. Pretty much shippable sans docs. However, I now strongly lean towards separating it into its own packaging repo: - debcargo-conf builds get .orig.tar from crates.io, where starship is stripped of docs, not a good thing when users might frequently consult them for customization. Its docs are built with Vitepress which currently is not in Debian, but we still get the .md sources. Otherwise we have to direct users to online docs, e.g. https://starship.rs/ - Most of debcargo generated debian/ files are overridden anyway. - I get to name the source package src:starship rather than src:rust-starship, which is forced upon by debcargo. ;) What's your opinion on this?
Your plan seems to me a good idea since it will make the package better for our users. I think that it's fine to ship docs as .md files at the beginning instead of pointing to the online documentation.
I'm almost done with my very busy period... I hope to restart contributing on the packaging side from the beginning of December.
Thanks again and kind regards, Daniele
