## How to request new packages and tools
166
+
167
+
If you need a specific tool or package that is not installed on the dev
168
+
desktops, you can request its installation by opening a pull request against
169
+
the [rust-lang/simpleinfra] repository. The Ansible role [`dev-desktop`](https://github.com/rust-lang/simpleinfra/blob/master/ansible/roles/dev-desktop)
170
+
contains a tasks called [`dependencies.yml`](https://github.com/rust-lang/simpleinfra/blob/master/ansible/roles/dev-desktop/tasks/dependencies.yml)
171
+
that lists the system packages that are installed on the machines. Add the
172
+
required package to this list, open a pull request, and ping `@rust-lang/infra`
173
+
for a review.
174
+
175
+
It helps to check <https://packages.ubuntu.com/> first and make sure that the
176
+
package is available for both `arm64` and `amd64` architectures.
