Yes, based on our experience with packaging the first GNOME Rust apps,
we suspect that the ftpmasters may reject using the vendored gi-types
for our build. If so, we will likely go one step further and exclude
that directory from our tarballs. However, you don't need to worry
about how that exclusion works now, but it's why I said we may end up
force-pushing to the repo later.
In order for new software to get into Debian, it must go through the
NEW queue [See https://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html ] and be
accepted by ftpmasters from there.
Understood. I'll take a look at the generators later.
Thank you for your explanation!
