Re: pspp and rust...

[Ben Pfaff]

Adding --without-rust to librsvg would be like adding --without-c to
PSPP. The "r" stands for "rust".

However, the binaries from adwaita-icon-theme are just a bunch of
icons. I think you should be able to just copy those icons from any
installation. (The Debian package for adwaita-icon-theme is
Architecture: all, meaning that it's only compiled once, not once for
every architecture.)
