Public bug reported:

Hello,

For the past cycle I have been working on patching in cargo-auditable
support to dh-cargo. Cargo-auditable is a tool that embeds dependency
metadata into Rust binaries.[1] This is invaluable in the aftermath of a
CVE, as it lets you know at-a-glance if a binary may have been
compromised. It's also great for curious users!

For 26.04, cargo-auditable will be *opt-in.* Developers of Rust packages
that build using dh-cargo can export `UBUNTU_ENABLE_CARGO_AUDITABLE=1`
near the top of their d/rules, and including `Build-Depends: cargo-
auditable` in d/control.

This bug tracks the FFE to enable cargo-auditable for the following popular Rust packages:
- rust-alacritty
- rust-bat
- rust-du-dust
- rust-eza
- rust-fd-find
- rust-hyperfine
- rust-ripgrep
- rust-sd
- rust-sudo-rs
