    It looks like the upstream varlink project is dead or close to that.
    The last commit on the libvarlink project is from 2 years ago, and
    I think there's been no apparent interaction in MRs and issues for a
    long time. The Linux kernel module for longer. And that looks similar
    for the other bindings, except for the Rust ones which have seen a
    few commits 6 months ago.

    As of April 2025 the varlink project seems more in "maintenaince"-mode?

    I see a bit of activity here:
    https://github.com/varlink/libvarlink

    Asking because I also use kanshi. Packaging varlink for Debian would enable packaging kanshictl

    Thanks
