The <literal>buildRustCrate</literal> infrastructure now produces <literal>lib</literal> outputs in addition to the <literal>out</literal> output.
This has led to drastically reduced closed sizes for some rust crates since development dependencies are now in the <literal>lib</literal> output.

Pango was upgraded to 1.44, which no longer uses freetype for font loading. This means that type1
and bitmap fonts are no longer supported in applications relying on Pango for font rendering
(notably, GTK application). See <link xlink:href="https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/issues/386">
upstream issue</link> for more information.
