I submitted this entry because IMHO is the first survey, that I am aware of, that is giving some data about the Rust toolchain inside a distribution.
I guess that openSUSE can be a bit different than Debian or Fedora, but there are some answers that for me are not expected. For example, the "In your ideal workflow, how would you prefer to manage your Rust dependencies?" question seems to favor cargo, instead a distribution package. That raises to me a lot of questions about how in this workflow we can have long time supported packages, when we need to backport fixes into dependencies that are not supported anymore upstream.
