Will Ubuntu do a hard replacement of coreutils with coreutils-rust, i.e. the usual C implentation of coreutils won’t be available anymore?
I assume they will simply install coreutils-rust instead of coreutils while keeping the latter in their repositories. So, in theory, Linux Mint may keep using the C implentated coreutils.
I mean they have to follow Ubuntu so not surprised you have Linux mint Debian Edition
Debian also uses Rust. Not the core utils but rust is now a build dep of Debian.
