Description : Lightweight full-text search engine written in JavaScript
This package will be needed for rustc where the documentation have a
web-browser-based search system to effectively search through the
documentation.
In Debian, currently the search script is stripped (see:
https://salsa.debian.org/rust-team/rust/-/blob/debian/sid/debian/patches/d-0002-mdbook-strip-embedded-libs.patch#L322).
By packaging the missing packages, we could restore the searching system
and providing a better documentation reading/searching experience for the Rust
developers who use Debian.
The package may be maintained by the Debian Javascript Maintainers.
The sponsorship is needed for the initial upload.
