Does it make sense to have this as a system package? 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

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 ?

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.

It's not a hard dependency, it simply needs rust-src in order for autocompletion and stuff to work properly.

I must have understood rust-lang/rust-analyzer#4224 wrong, it says that it's packaged with rustup already. But yeah, I couldn't download it with rustup :/

I updated the package to the latest version.

Looks good to me.
Sorry for the long delay.

I will merge it when CI passed.

Thanks. Do you want me to update it to the latest version? It just came out today...
