Hi,

rust-rust-apt in unstable can't migrate to testing because the QA
infrastructure couldn't reproduce the binary packages in unstable while
it could reproduce the version in testing [1, 2].

There are two problems:

1. The tests running during the build depend on apt which is not
essential but happen to be installed on the buildds. Please add a build
dependency. See also [3].

2. The tests fail if no package on the host system is installed
automatically. Please rewrite the test to either not assume that or
create a mockup environment.

Cheers Jochen
