Another case where aliases might be useful would be that of replacing a
slow-compiling source port with a precompiled binary port in order to save time.
For example the following would indicate that '%fn%rust-bin%%' is considered

-> The motivation for a policy of separating 'download' from 'build' is that a
user with intermittent internet access should be able to run @@pkgmk -do@@ in
the directory of every outdated package, and then go offline to finish the sysup
operation. Language-specific toolchains, like those embraced by rust and python
(cargo and pip, respectively), are making this policy more difficult to enforce.
You are free to forego CRUX pkgutils and let the ecosystems of the ''N''
different languages manage their respective software in separate subdirectories

expense of having to learn ''N+1'' administration suites rather than just the

official repositories represents a hard-won effort by the CRUX team
to sustain the historic method of software deployment, in the face of software
development trends all heading away from this model.
