But rebuilding isn't enough, they need to migrate to testing.
rust-bindgen hasn't migrated since 2019-10-23, it's currently blocked by
rustc (but that can't have been the problem in the beginning). rustc
isn't migrating since 2019-11-28, although it might just make it
tomorrow, if not blocked by e.g. *rust-clang-sys*. rust-clang-sys needs
a fix for a failing autopkgtest, otherwise it won't migrate (already in
that state for 30 days). Packages like rust-glob haven't migrated for
163 days, so it seems to me the whole rust stack is interwoven and it
needs more coordination by the rust maintainers to get it moving to testing.
A bit of elaboration on how this is all supposed to work might help us
understanding the situation such that we can help if needed.
