Hi,

Indeed, unfortunately sloccount doesn't seem to be actively
maintained, a merge request for Rust support didn't get any attention:
https://sourceforge.net/p/sloccount/code/merge-requests/5/

I'd love to see support for more languages. We'd need to:

- Find a suitable alternative (supports a superset of sloccount
  languages, has decent performances).

- Replace the execution and parsing of sloccount output by this
  alternative (in
  https://salsa.debian.org/qa/debsources/-/blob/master/lib/debsources/plugins/hook_sloccount.py?ref_type=heads).

- To keep things consistent, run it on the whole archive to replace
  sloccount results.

Insights on the first point are particularly welcome.

Cheers,
