Well, to be honest, I have no idea. I would say that those who want the new
Yubikey UI in will have to package the required SDKs. (They could also be
useful for other applications, e.g., the "Every Door" OpenStreetMap POI
editor.) Otherwise, I would suggest just keeping shipping the legacy stuff
that is already packaged.
It is sad that more and more upstreams, even those that were previously
using standard GNU/Linux programming languages and toolkits, are now using
strange programming languages and toolkits that are a pain to package. (Go,
Rust, Dart, etc., and toolkits such as Flutter that build on those.) I miss
the times where everything was in C or in some cases (mostly just Qt and
KDE) C++.
