Code: https://github.com/pkgforge/soar
Soar is like linuxbrew (homebrew) but whose packages are 100% static & relocatable on any Linux Distro.
I count 341 dependencies. This massive attack surface might be a problem for people who care about security.
To be clear, this is not unusual in the Rust ecosystem. It's a bit of an awkward situation: Rust's big value proposition is security through memory safety, but that is undermined by its not-especially-rich standard library and Cargo's encouragement of pulling in many dependencies. I hope this will improve in the years to come.
