Note that the rust teams' policy is only to file bugs for rust crates if they are binary ones (e.g. /usr/bin/foo). It's not wrong; you can leave those open for now.

Usually it's straightforward; if you're interested you can look into it here <https://blog.hackeriet.no/packaging-a-rust-project-for-debian/>.

Bug#1004919: Asking for new upstream release
I have retracted the current version of kmscon I had uploaded at mentors.debian.net to ask the upstream maintainer for a new release (https://github.com/Aetf/kmscon/issues/42), so I can prepare a proper release for Debian. A new version of libtsm has just been accepted into the archive, closing the blocking bug #1004921, so there should be no further blocks once I get a new version of kmscon ready. -- Victor Westerhuis OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

In case anyone wants to pick this up: I packaged this for my own use at https://salsa.debian.org/viccie30/cppinsights. The packaging works, I just haven't gone through all the files to check for copyright and license statements, so it's not in a state to go into the archive. Anyone who wants to get this into Debian is welcome to use it as a starting point. If I have some more time in the future and nobody steps up, I might try to get it into Debian myself. -- Vriendelijke groet, Kind regards, Victor Westerhuis OpenPGP_signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Bug#1004919: ITP: kmscon -- Simple terminal emulator based on Kernel Mode Setting
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Victor Westerhuis X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-de...@lists.debian.org * Package name: kmscon Version : 8+40 Upstream Author : Aetf * URL : https://github.com/Aetf/kmscon * License : Expat Programming Lang: C Description : Simple terminal emulator based on Kernel Mode Setting kmscon is a system console for linux. It does not depend on any graphics-server on your system (like X.org), but instead provides a raw console layer that can be used independently. It can replace the linux kernel console entirely but was designed to work well side-by-side, too. Even though initially targeted at providing internationalization to the system-console, it has grown into a fully modularized console layer including features like multi-head support, internationalized font rendering, XKB-compatible keyboard handling, hardware-accelerated graphics access and more. I have used this package since Linux dropped scrollback support from the kernel in 2020 [1]. The original upstream [2] has been dead since 2014, but Aetf has picked up development. Kmscon depends on a newer, forked version of libtsm. I'll file a separate bug to address that.

That would be great. I'd like to ask Aetf for a versioned release as well, but first I'd like to get composing working. There's an open issue for that and I independently had a patch for that as well, so I'll see if I can get that upstreamed. > i'm the maintainer and upstream author of Notcurses, and kmscon > is very much a target of mine. if you'd like to integrate any > Notcurses stuff into your testing, just hit me up; i'd be happy > to help! I would like something a bit more formal to test kmscon. So far I've just been testing out different modes and see if aptitude draws everything correctly, but that's hardly a decent compliance test.

It would be great if it could be moved back under FDO auspices, but I haven't tried to contact them, yet. Going by your experiences that might not be worth the effort then.

Thanks for bringing your fork to my attention. I can see you have an open issue for the cursor location coordinates, but I don't see any commits related to that in the history of the master branch. The two fixes I can see, for the removal of SIGUNUSED and adding an include for sys/sysmacros.h have also been implemented in Aetf's branch. Aetf's fork has some additional functionality, so I would prefer to use that. However, in the course of packaging kmscon I've also opened some PRs on Github and they've responded very quickly. If you have a fix, I'm sure they'll happily take it as well. OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
