Dear all, We also have a Rust tool we want to package in Guix, but Rust (like Go and JS) appears to encourage an insane list of dependencies:

At the moment I am inclined to run Cargo after the Guix install. A bit similar to what we did with Go and IPFS earlier. A working importer would be great news. Same for Racket, btw. Pj.
