Alias request for rustup Snap

Hi,

I want to make an alias request for the rustup snap. If it is possible, I want to request the following aliases:

cargo
rustc
cargo-clippy
cargo-fmt
cargo-miri
clippy-driver
rust-gdb
rust-lldb
rls
rust-analyzer
rustdoc
rustfmt

This large number of aliases is required because rustup is a launcher for the Rust tools. When the user requests a specific binary to be executed, the call must go through the rustup launcher to run the correct version (e.g., calls like cargo +1.65 check can’t be handled by the actual cargo).

You can find the complete corresponding Snap manifest files at https://github.com/liushuyu/rustup-snap.

Thanks!

I think the majority of the aliases are already granted with previous requests (here and here). The two that are missing are rust-gdb and rust-lldb.

+1 from me to grant rust-gdb and rust-lldb aliases to rustup snap.

Considering that the majority of the aliases were already granted to this snap and that I could not find obvious collisions with the newly requested ones,

+1 from me to grant rust-gdb and rust-lldb aliases to rustup snap.
