As stated in the title: What is missing to be able to install this crate?

Ok, I see, builder needs this crate, since it wants to compile uefi_bin/bios_bin if you call it. Is that right? Can I help you here?

Hello @bjorn3 I just saw that you replied to the issue #225 and I hope that's it's fine to ping you. Do you know the future plans of this crate? Is it possible that I can help to make the builder installable with cargo install bootloader --features builder?

@phil-opp is the author of this crate. You will probably have to ask him.

I'm currently working a new 0.11 version of the crate, which should remove the need for any builder binaries. The plan is to provide the functionality as a library instead so that you can invoke it in your own way.
