But we indeed do not have any other "real" binary package, as in non-librust-source-code one. Can we host this in proxmox-firewall or maybe even better pve-network as its own source package there? Else fine to have its own repo I guess, it's a bit a matter of taste (I do not want a single mono repo, but also not spreading stuff over to man single one, a bit grouped by topic would be nice). Cc'in Fabian and Stefan/Gabriel for packaging and SDN preference here. >> Oh, and why can't we depend on a proxmox-headers package on build? >> Like on proxmox-headers-7.0.14-28-pve? that would allow full control >> without checking the headers file in.
