Description     :  A comprehensive Linux hardware information and real-time sensor monitoring tool (CLI/TUI). Single static binary, no runtime dependencies.

I intend to package rust-siomon. This package will be maintained within the debian rust team.
This package exposes the "sio" executable.
The repo also includes an optional kernel module that exposes more metrics without root access.
Should I package it too? Maybe at another time? I guess it wont work with the rust-team tooling,
as it is a c kmodule. debcargo complains "Suspicious files detected, aborting".
I'm leaning towards just excluding it from this package (at least for now).

Thanks,
