What Hacker News says

I'm working on rustnet (https://github.com/domcyrus/rustnet) which is a cross-platform network monitoring TUI built with Rust that provides real-time visibility into network connections with deep packet inspection. Currently I'm spending numerous hours trying to package for multiple Linux distributions. I have to say that building for Ubuntu using the Debian build system and Launchpad seems like a way to spend days for nothing except frustration :) Maybe the problem is also me / PEBKAC
