I found this to be weird and checked out the repo locally and just removed the line in the Cargo.toml after not really seeing any real dependency on Wasmtime. Everything still compiled with cargo build -p wasi-common --no-default-features --features sync. Is this simply outdated? It would be great if other WASI runtimes (such as Wasmi) could use wasi-common with its sync feature to enable WASI and drop the heavily outdated wasi-cap-std-sync crate entirely.
