Hi folks,
While trying to unretire python-cattrs[1], I ended up falling down a rabbit hole of deps.
One of its optional test deps, orjson[2], requires "maturin"[3] to build. maturin looks like something that helps publish rust code as python packages. I think I may have come across this before, but it's the first time I've actually bothered to look into it. (I know nothing about rust so I tend to steer clear of rust projects).
So, has anyone else come across this before? Has anyone looked into packaging it?
Given my non-existent rust knowledge, I'd like to avoid packaging/maintaining maturin if at all possible. Is there a way to not use it perhaps (unlikely, I know)?

The orjson package itself is written in Rust, so it’s probably best just to do without orjson for the python-cattrs tests if you’re not inclined to go down that rabbit hole.
That said, it would be great to have a python-orjson package in Fedora, and I’ve considered attempting it but never found the time. For a long time, it was not packageable because it required a nightly Rust toolchain, but it’s my understanding that it now builds on stable Rust.

Yeh, I think I'll try to do without orjson in the short term if at all possible, just to get the packages all building etc. again, and we can look into orjson/maturin when time permits (if someone doesn't beat us to it).
