So you're point is that your custom home grown workaround to a failure of C++ doesn't play well with Rusts official solution to the same problem? And therefore Rusts solution isn't better than C++ lack of a solution?
While that is unfortunate for you and you certainly seem to have tech-debted yourself into a particularly nasty corner, I'm not sure that logic follows.
Rust's package manager doesn't manage c++, python, or anything else. Since the real world should not be one language to rule them all any package system must handle all possible languages. Otherwist they are lacking.
