Have you guys tried cargo-deb? Amazing!
Okay, just for completeness: Since windows support is experimental (and kind of broken) in cargo-bundle, for windows the best option at the moment seems to be cargo-wix: https://github.com/volks73/cargo-wix

Rust 2030 Christmas list: Subcrate dependencies
Between workspace inheritance and tools like cargo-release, this has become trivial for me. If people don't want to use a third-party tool, we can always be working on improving cargo further, like publishing more than one crate at a time or merging support for modifying versions.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cargo-wix and cargo-release you can also consider the following projects:
cargo-bundle - Wrap rust executables in OS-specific app bundles
cargo-make - Rust task runner and build tool.
cargo-deb - A cargo subcommand that generates Debian packages from information in Cargo.toml
cargo-deny - ❌ Cargo plugin for linting your dependencies 🦀
cargo-release - Cargo subcommand `release`: everything about releasing a rust crate.
sqldeveloperinstaller - 64-bit Windows MSI package for Oracle SQL Developer (with JDK)
cargo-show-asm - cargo subcommand showing the assembly, LLVM-IR and MIR generated for Rust code
