    It is a simple trait providing many asserters. This trait is then implemented for many http clients: reqwest, surf, isahc, hyper and actix.

    This indicates curl, zlib, openssl, and libnghttp2 as well as a bunch of WASM-related things are being dynamically linked into my executable. To resolve this, I looked at the build features exposed by surf and found that it selects the "curl_client" feature by default, which can be turned off and replaced with "h1-client-rustls" which uses an HTTP client backed by rustls and async-std and no dynamically linked libraries. Enabling this build feature removed all -sys dependencies from androidx-release-watcher, allowing me to build static executables of it.
  • http client facade library?

    https://github.com/http-rs/surf provides an abstraction over several backends, but forces you into async and async-std, and the abstractions it provides are very limited anyway.

    That's already prevented by the checksum which is present for all crate versions in the registry index, which is set in stone on publish and verified by cargo on download. See e.g. https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index/blob/74f1b1e064...
