[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#995419: rust-utf-8: autopkgtest regression: crate directory not found: /usr/share/cargo/registry/utf-8-0.7.6

[Paul Gevers]

Source: rust-utf-8
Version: 0.7.6-1
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Severity: serious
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression

Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of rust-utf-8 the autopkgtest of rust-utf-8 fails
in testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of
rust-utf-8 from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from
testing. In tabular form:

                       pass            fail
rust-utf-8             from testing    0.7.6-1
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. Indeed the
cargo/registry only has /usr/share/cargo/registry/utf-0.7.6/

Currently this regression is blocking the migration to testing [1]. Can
you please investigate the situation and fix it?
