It goes hand in hand with rust development, for which someone would likely be using `rustup`. And it gets releases like crazy: https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/releases Currently, `rust-analyzer` is distributed as binary only, not via rustup, so I think it makes sense to distribute it for now via XBPS. There was a discussion about whether it should be distributed via rustup, but nothing has changed since then. > This installation step seems to indicate it depends on `rustup`, unless it can download sources without rustup: https://rust-analyzer.github.io/manual.html#installation ? It's not a hard dependency, it simply needs `rust-src` in order for autocompletion and stuff to work properly.
