For future release, a better way of handling this will be needed. The fact that these updates break random other packages isn't really acceptable. > This causes two FTBFS bugs for crates which no longer build on rustc 1.34.2: > > - #931002 coresimd https://crates.io/crates/coresimd > - #931003 simd https://crates.io/crates/simd > > In fact these crates are deprecated and should be RMd.

I don't know if there is a good way to track al these dependencies. With some effort, I got to this list of packages to remove: rust-bytecount rust-coresimd rust-encoding-rs rust-encoding-rs-io rust-grep rust-grep-printer rust-grep-searcher rust-packed-simd rust-ripgrep rust-simd I guess the only option is to remove all of them from buster.
