+## Purpose:
+## This class is to support building with cargo. It
+## must be different than cargo.bbclass because Rust
+## now builds with Cargo but cannot use cargo.bbclass
+## due to dependencies and assumptions in cargo.bbclass
+## that Rust & Cargo are already installed. So this
+## is used by cargo.bbclass and Rust
+##
