Package: debcargo Version: 2.5.0-3+b3 Severity: wishlist I'd like to be able to specify declaratively in debcargo.toml that a specific feature of the crate i'm packaging should be ignored.
i currently do this on a few different crates, because there are
features that either aren't relevant for debian, or because those
features require much more packaging work for dependencies and i'd
rather get the crate -- without that feature -- into debian before the
feature's dependencies are ready.
So i'm proposing new syntax in debcargo.toml:
ignore_features = foo,bar
This would indicate that those features would not be packaged for debian
at all.
On IRC, f_g notes:

I think a first pass at this would be simply to remove them from
d/control, and see what kinds of breakage we run into.
