Just done a pkgin upgrade and I'm being asked to install rust as aruntime dependency which seems wrong.
According to pkgin:
pkgin show-deps librsvg
direct dependencies for librsvg-2.44.14
         rust>=1.20.0

[other deps snipped]

No other rust compiled tools need this. Is there a reason why librsvgdoes? Its a big runtime dependency for a library.

No obvious reason why this is happening. The only makefile fragmentsthat are rust related mark it as a build dependency.

The only other rust package that I know of that uses cargo is cbindgenwhich is used by firefox. That too has a runtime dependency on rust butfirefox gets away with this as cbindgen is only a build time dependency.

I'm not well versed enough in pkgsrc makefiles to be able to work thisone out. :(
