Would it be possible to ship https://ctan.org/pkg/pkgcheck in TeX Live? Sadly, no. Apart from rust, it has no autoconf support. Also, we cannot install an executable (that ends up in /usr/bin/...) with the generic name "pkgcheck". A billion systems in the world have "packages" that need to be "checked". I discussed all this with Manfred years ago, soon after he wrote it, and we agreed it felt a lot simpler all around for those few people who want it to just get it directly from ctan. --best, karl.
