I said this is a hard problem and might not even be solvable.

rust is not better than C++ if you are in any of those cases where rust doesn't work. Not really worse, but not better either. If it works for you great, but it is worse for me as rust fight our homegrown system (which has a lot of warts )

So you're point is that your custom home grown workaround to a failure of C++ doesn't play well with Rusts official solution to the same problem? And therefore Rusts solution isn't better than C++ lack of a solution?

While that is unfortunate for you and you certainly seem to have tech-debted yourself into a particularly nasty corner, I'm not sure that logic follows.

Rust's package manager doesn't manage c++, python, or anything else. Since the real world should not be one language to rule them all any package system must handle all possible languages. Otherwist they are lacking.
