https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2328487 --- Comment #4 from Ben Beasley <code@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Thank you for the review. (In reply to Fabio Valentini from comment #3) > There are quite a number of packages that start to depend on postcard, it > might make sense to package it eventually. I thought about it, just to avoid having to carry so many patches, but I gave it a quick attempt and it seemed “annoying.” While postcard seems actively maintained, it requires the cobs crate by the same author, which has a few languishing issues and PR’s (https://github.com/jamesmunns/cobs.rs). Then, depending on whether one wants to try to support all the features, one might be packaging postcard-derive, defmt, and/or embedded-io crates. There are also co-developed postcard-schema and postcard-dyn crates that may or may not get pulled in. Looking at https://crates.io/crates/postcard/reverse_dependencies, unless someone tries again on wasmtime in Fedora, postcard would only be packaged as a common but minor dev-dependency for the icu4x stack, supporting examples and the occasional extra integration test. Having postcard packaged *would* save a lot of patching, and I’m not opposed to the idea in principle, but I’m not convinced it’s really worth dealing with the whole postcard stack if nothing is going to use it “in real life.” -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
