rust-libslirp depends on several unmaintained Rust crates. When a
Fedora packager complained about this in
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/slirp/libslirp-rs/-/issues/5 , it was
suggested that passt is a maintained alternative to libslirp-helper.
Please evaluate whether debos can switch since debos is the only
reason rust-libslip is still in Debian.

rust-passt is not yet packaged in Debian. Please let the Debian Rust
team know if you need it to be packaged.

Wrong passt. :D

I assume the Fedora people were referring to https://passt.top/ :)
