My ~/.cargo/config.toml reads: [net] offline = true [source] [source.crates-io] replace-with = "debian" [source.debian] directory = "/usr/share/cargo/registry" This works really well in my case. As far as smooth solutions for opting in to crates.io in particular circumstances, I and others have collected some notes on [1]. But in reality I get very far with the above Cargo config + manually adding the odd crate (or crate version) when it's not available in Debian.
