+Rust build dependencies
+ QEMU is generally conservative in adding new Rust dependencies, and all
+ of them are included in the distributed tarballs. One exception is the
+ bindgen tool, which is too big to package and distribute. The minimum
+ supported version of bindgen is 0.60.x. For distributions that do not
+ include bindgen or have an older version, it is recommended to install
+ a newer version using ``cargo install bindgen-cli``.

+ this requires Cargo 1.74.0. Note that Cargo is not required in order
