Hi all,

resvg is a command-line SVG renderer which I introduced to Debian back
in 2019. Unfortunately, very soon after the initial upload the upstream
has rewritten substantial parts of resvg, which resulted in it requiring
build dependencies that were missing from Debian at that point. I tried
to update resvg and upload the missing dependencies, but ultimately
never completed that work, and resvg was removed from bookworm.

Unfortunately, I cannot invest any more time into resvg at the moment,
so I have to officially request assistance with maintaining the resvg package.

To the Debian Rust team: if you can, please adopt this package.

Thank you.

The package description is:
 resvg is a command-line utility to render SVG files based on a static
 SVG Full 1.1 subset. It is a fast, small, portable, multiple
 backend SVG library designed for edge-cases.
 .
 resvg supports Cairo and Qt backends.
