Description
The new signature crate in Rust fails to build from source on Linux/arm64 due to mismatched char signedness. This isn't one of our supported targets, but the

PPA makes an attempt to build them for completeness.The fix is to use
std::os::raw::c_char
in place ofi8
for string pointers.Reference
