James McCoy and I have been working on updating the rust-nom package from
version 5 to version 7, this is needed to enable ICMP support in sniffglue and
I belive it is also needed to facilitate packaging of alacritty.

In addition to the rust-nom package (which is currently version 5.x in testing
and version 7.x in unstable) there is a rust-nom-4 package providing version
4.x and a rust-nom-3 package providing version 3.x. It would be possible to
introduce a rust-nom-5 package as well but I don't think it's justifiable to
introduce yet another version at this time.

All but one of the reverse (build-)dependencies of nom 5.x have been ported to
nom 7.x, either by new upstream versions or by patching. That leaves
rust-weedle. rust-weedle has a single reverse (build-)dependency
rust-wasm-bindgen-webidl, neither of them are currently used by any applications
in Debian.

The version of rust-weedle currently in testing is the latest upstream version
and depends on nom 5.x. I tried patching it to use nom 7.x but failed to do
so, I also filed a bug report upstream but got no response. 

I then decided to try patching rust-weedle to use nom 4.x since that would at
least avoid introducing yet another version of nom to the archive. I did so
by reverting the upstream commit porting it from 4.x to 5.x. The tests passed
and I uploaded it as rust-weedle 0.12.0-2.

Unfortunately after uploading it I discovered that the autopkgtest for
rust-wasm-bindgen-webidl failed and it became clear that my upload of
rust-weedle had caused an API break. I attempted to try and adjust the
patch to avoid the API break but was not successful, I don't think the version
with the API break can be considered fit for release.

At that point I filed bug 1007026 to give the rest of the rust team a chance
to comment on the issue and said that if noone objected I planned to file
a removal request with the release team.

I now request that rust-weedle and rust-wasm-bindgen-webidl are removed from
testing so that rust-nom and it's reverse dependencies can migrate.
