Nothing should stop it from getting to "testing". It was blocked on
due to "autopkgtest-pkg-go" which is useless for binary-only packages.
At a time I did not mind because I was not sure whether it is
good enough for "testing".
Either way, it would be bad break perfectly working "nomad-driver-podman"
in "unstable" even though it has never been in "testing" yet.

IMHO Nomad with Podman is more useful. Docker-compose is somewhat redundant
and with Nomad we have a proper container-based cluster orchestration with
service auto-discovery.

It is not unfortunate. Everything works as expected and how else would I know
whether technology is good enough for the next release? "Fix it for yourself
and for everyone else" has been my philosophy for some time. :)
The only unfortunate thing is regression on Podman side that is holding back
upgrade of "nomad-driver-podman" and de-commissioning of Varlink...

No it hasn't... :( There is a serious regression:

As soon as the fix is available...
