I appreciate your efforts to keep testing moving forwards.

All the crates that are used by applications in testing that had dependencies
on rust-futures have been dealt with (generally by disabling cargo features).

That leaves a bunch of crates from an old version of tokio which no longer
exist as separate crates in current tokio. The main tokio crate itself
(which has an updated version in unstable),and a couple of other miscellaneous
crates.

These will all be autoremoved in a few days time as a result of bugs
998570 and 998611

If you want to speed things up a bit and avoid rust-tokio cycling out
and back in to testing, then you could set removal hints on the following
packages.

rust-tokio-executor
rust-tokio-current-thread
rust-tokio-fs
rust-tokio-reactor
rust-tokio-tcp
rust-tokio-threadpool
rust-tokio-timer
rust-tokio-udp
rust-tokio-uds
rust-tokio-io
rust-bufstream
rust-lewton
rust-ogg
rust-tokio-async-await
rust-tokio-codec
