Hi Kyle, (or other interested/involved parties) Bazel has suddenly become more important because it is preventing us from getting packages working that would help with the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the significance, I am copying the Debian Med team as well as key people from this bug's history in the hopes of getting something moving quickly.

I can relate to the kid/time issues! ;) Have you had any time to work on it recently? Did you ever upload any of your work? In the meantime, I see that Bazel has an unofficial Ubuntu build [1]. Do you know anything about that? It seems like a good place for us to start if you aren't close to a product yourself. Oh, and to state this explicitly: I'm happy to work on this if it'll help it get into Debian faster! I just don't want to step on anyone's toes if someone has already made significant progress on this ITP. -Olek [1] https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/install-ubuntu.html#install-on-ubuntu
