Tested with aarch64/musl build. Patch 3 ("package: update all hashes
after cargo3 switch") doesn't apply cleanly on current master because
package/python-maturin and package/kmon have been updated since this
series was sent, I fixed that locally. With that caveat

Tested-by: Fiona Klute <fiona.klute at gmx.de>

for the series.

Thanks,
Fiona
