Description
Description
In order to get typst installable via the Debian repos, all dependencies in Cargo.lock need to be available at https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?email=pkg-rust-maintainers%40alioth-lists.debian.net. The majority exist already, but from a cursory look maybe about 20% will need to be added if they can't be configured out.
This happens by adding dependencies in salsa via debcargo https://salsa.debian.org/rust-team/debcargo-conf which anyone can do. Once all the missing dependencies are in, Typst itself can be added.
There is an existing RTP at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1060888
There is also an incomplete https://github.com/jcbhmr/typst.deb, which I believe would be for a PPA. Being in the main repos is of course a better goal, if possible.
Use Case
It would be an awesome convenience to be able to install Typst via apt. I know the Typst maintainers will likely not want to get involved, but I think it seems reasonable to have a "help wanted" tracking issue.
