    @catamorphism, is it safe to presume that rustc itself will start using rustpkg at some point? If so, is it enough to provide an uninstallation facility with rustpkg, or would it still need to be able to work through checkinstall?

    @bstrie Yes -- #2237 is already open to move rust to being built with rustpkg. That won't be done for a while, but in the meantime, this particular issue doesn't seem super urgent, so it doesn't seem worth it to fix the Makefiles.
