Requesting guidance on the best way to package Python packages that include Rust code (specifically uv_build)



Note:  Sending again with a fixed address for the debian-rust mailing list.  I 
apologize for the duplicate.

There are a couple of Python packages I maintain which have introduced new 
dependencies written in Python but containing Rust code.  In particular, this 
email is regarding uv_build, which is a Python build system that is being 
adopted by a number of upstream projects whose packages I maintain.

Manuel Guerra has been looking into how difficult it is to package uv_build.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1115616

By default, it wants to download Rust code at build-time based on a 
Cargo.toml.  I assume this is not unique nor the first time this can come up 
with a Python package.  My question is, what is the canonical way for handing 
such dependencies?
