Folks,

Is there someone who like to help on the rfc3161-client package, which
involves both Rust and Python?  Starting point is here:

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-rfc3161-client

Build failure here:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-rfc3161-client/-/jobs/8106868

I haven't had time to look into the pointers given earlier, I am hoping
this is easy to solve for anyone familiar with Rust & Python packaging.

There is good interaction with upstream going on about dependencies for
the entire Sigstore stack --
https://github.com/sigstore/sigstore-python/issues/1524 -- and I think
we can influence things a little (like temporarily avoiding use of the
UV build system for some Python code) if we put some cycles into
preparing packages that are needed for Sigstore into Debian.

/Simon
