[Pkg-rust-maintainers] [RFH] packing kmon

[Stephan Lachnit]

Hi,

I'm interested in packing kmon (https://github.com/orhun/kmon), a Linux Kernel Activity Monitor. However, I'm completely new to Rust, and I got a bit confused, so I would like to ask for help here.
First of all, my current attempt is here: https://salsa.debian.org/stephanlachnit-guest/kmon
I didn't create it with debcargo, it wouldn't let me because of this:

Suspicious file, should probably be excluded: "kmon-1.0.0/example/lkm_example.c"
Something failed: ErrorMessage { msg: "Suspicious files detected, aborting. Ask on #debian-rust if you are stuck." }

And I have no clue whatsoever what to do but asking :)
Ignoring the dependencies for now, when building I immediately get an error:

cp: cannot stat './debian/cargo-checksum.json': No such file or directory

I tried to understand what to put in there, but I didn't really understand it. I guess this is not a problem if debcargo would work.
Also, three of the dependencies are currently missing (marked with #), or at least it couldn't find them. Can someone help me with them? As far as I see it, they all work fine with debcargo, but I'm not a DD so I don't have upload rights.

Thanks in advance and best regards
Stephan
