I am having a very funny experience right now where I want to run a program on my Synology NAS. "Everybody knows" that Rust's packaging situation is "good" and Python's packaging situation is "bad" but I can run whatever Python code I want because the Python community has actually invested in packaging tooling and prebuilt artifacts but Rust insists on compiling everything all the time and thus the only message I get from `cargo install` for anything non-trivial is "error: linker `cc` not found"
