rust-libslirp depends on the obsolete rust-zbus-1 (instead of the
current rust-zbus-3) and rust-zvariant-2 (instead of rust-zvariant-3).

The Debian Rust Team would like to remove the obsolete versions of
rust-zbus and rust-zvariant from Debian.

On behalf of the Debian Rust Team,

We discussed this on irc a while back, and apparently the package is important
to debos. Though the package relationship is only a "suggests".

I looked at porting this, but came to the conclusion that is beyond what
I could reasonablly do. IIRC zbus moved from sync rust to async rust
and there was no porting guide.

Hi,

Because it’s needed in the UML mode, but UML is not the main mode of operation. UML is in Suggests, so it libslirp-helper.
