  Description     : Rust FFI bindings to Chromium Embedded Framework

This is the -sys crate providing raw Rust FFI bindings to the Chromium
Embedded Framework (CEF). It contains pre-generated bindings for the
CEF C API and handles linking against the system libcef shared library.

This crate is a dependency of the higher-level "rust-cef" Rust crate, which
provides safe Rust abstractions over CEF.

Together they enable Rust applications to embed a Chromium-based browser
engine.

The package depends on chromium-embedded-framework (ITP #915400) for the
native CEF shared library.

I intend to have this package maintained within the Debian Rust Team.
