I'd assume, yes.

We were waiting on PyO3, primarily, I think. I see it's in unstable, but
hasn't made it to testing, yet. I'll do a source-only upload.

Thanks for the patches, Simon; I am working on testing and uploading this version as an intermediate step while we resolve the Rust issue. As far as Rust goes, it should be straightforward packaging the missing dependencies here, but unfortunately I have not been able to do much Debian-related work recently.
