[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#1001330: sqop: Provide a sop alternative for sqop

[Guillem Jover]

Package: sqop
Version: 0.22.2-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

One of the main advantages of the SOP CLI is that it is a standardized
interface, which means having to hardcode specific implementations in
code kind of defeats the point of that interface. It would be nice to
be able to by default just use «sop» and use that interface behind
an alternative (in the dpkg alternatives system), then the local admin
can select any of the existing implementations. I'm not sure how you'd
want to decide on the priority of the alternatives though, perhaps at
least by level of compliance (although I don't mind greatly TBH :)?

Thanks,
Guillem
