Hello David,
I am also not a DD or DM.
I agree, first all cargo packages/modules have to go into Debian.
Perhaps we can
ask some Rust devs how to do that. I will ask around.
Yes building it with network connection is a no-go and violation of
the Debian guidelines.
I have shortwave successful runing in Testing.
I will keep in touch.

Hello Willem,
you have more advanced debian/ so I'd start from your version.
Sadly, I'm not official Debian developer, so I cannot do that, we
have
to find someone who will.
There will be likely many rust libs which needs to be packaged, TBH I
haven't progressed much on it.
I think we cannot upload even to experimental, when the package
download stuff while build from internet.
I'll test your build & check lintian --pedantic how it goes, but I
guess until we get everything it builds offline, it'll be issue.
Thank you
David
Best regards

Dobry den David,
I also have been working on shortwave and have a working package
which you can find here:
https://salsa.debian.org/wvdakker/shortwave
Is it possible to create a team respository so we can work as a team
on the package? There is quite a bit Rust work/libraries on which we
have to work. To much for one person.
Another probleem is the networkaccess during the build. USENETWORK
must
be used in the pbuilderrc because a lot of cargo must be downloaded.
However the policy prevents that any the package must be build in a
chroot (4.9).
Can you as maintainer create a team library? Then we upload the
version
to experimental as an starting point.
Na shledanou
