Packaging ash?



Hello team,

A package I maintain [1], recently released its first version after
being rewritten in Rust [2]. It's an executable binary, not a
library.

I'm happy to see that upstream has kept the set of dependencies small
and manageable. One item is, however, missing in Debian still: ash [3].

Is ash something the Rust team has considered packaging? I've only had a
cursory look, and it doesn't look too bad. Maybe I'm missing
something. I'm happy to help out, but I'm very unfamiliar with the style
of packaging the team uses.

PS: The Rust packaging policy seems useful, but mostly focused on
library crates. Are there any particular caveats or considerations I
should keep in mind when moving ahead with this exectuable-only crate?
