There's no excuse, not to make .deb files for #rustlang projects anymore with cargo-deb!

I know it's existed for a while, but I just found it recently and as a Debian user, would love to see wider adoption.
While some people may be able to install most programs from cargo, a lot of cool projects just can't be used by less experienced #debian, #ubuntu and derivatives users.

So if you are working on a project that not only targets #devs, make it easier for newcomers and publish a .deb file as well.
(cargo-aur also does this for #arch)
