Package: librust-directories-1-dev
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the short package description is not suitable to be shown on a single line because it is 341 characters long :
"Tiny mid-level library that provides platform-specific standard locations of directories for config, cache and other data on Linux, Windows and macOS by leveraging the mechanisms defined by the XDG base/user directory specifications on Linux, the Known Folder API on Windows, and the Standard Directory guidelines on macOS - Rust source code"


The policy says:
"The single line synopsis should be kept brief—certainly under 80 characters."

thanks for you work in Debian,
Daniele
