Bug#914769: RFP: bindgen -- Generate Rust FFI bindings to C and C++ libraries



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : bindgen
  Version         : 0.43.2
  Upstream Author : Jyun-Yan You <jyyou.tw@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen
* License         : BSD-3-Clause
  Programming Lang: Rust
  Description     : Generate Rust FFI bindings to C and C++ libraries

Automatically generates Rust FFI bindings to C and C++ libraries.

This is the opposite direction of cbindgen (which is already in
debian) -- it makes it straightforward to create Rust bindings over C
and (some) C++ libraries.

Concretely, it is a build-dependency for packaging the rust nettle
bindings, which are used by the Sequoia OpenPGP implementation.
