Description
Currently MathCAT does not version a Cargo.lock file, it's on the gitignore. Could you consider versioning a Lockfile?
I'm currently packaging MathCAT for NixOS as part of the [upcoming GNOME 51 update](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/559510), since Orca, GNOME's screen reader uses MathCAT by default.
We need a lockfile to be able to package MathCAT. If you really don't want to we could vendor it ourselves but it would be really inconvenient for us for a number of reasons.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the repository's ignore rules and Rust package configuration to see why Cargo.lock is excluded. The work is done when the lockfile is present in version control and the project's existing checks still pass.
