[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#1053556: Bug#1050769: dh-cargo: should provide a build() method

[Marc Dequènes (duck)]

Quack,

Sorry for the lag, I really lacked time and energy recently but I'll try 
to upload a fix soon.

You're right and I did not realize nocheck would be used for real in 
this package. I never saw this as a perfect solution but until debcargo 
implements what's needed that seemed fine.

It looks fine but that's precisely what I wanted to avoid: I do not want 
to maintain the build steps and have to update the calls and flags when 
cargo or any other piece of tooling changes.
Maybe that won't change often but that's still silly to implement that 
in each and every leaf package and as a consequence there's no unified 
policy.
Unfortunately I do not have the bandwidth to propose debcargo changes.

So I guess I'll apply the patch you kindly provided but I'm thinking 
about handing over the maintainership of wlgreet and greetd to people 
who really have time to do it properly, or… maybe comaint.

Anyway, thanks for the report and patch everyone.
