Control: reassign -1 dh-rust
Control: retitle -1 dh-rust: fails to build packages with profile 
`nocheck` and <!nocheck> B-Ds
Control: severity -1 important
Control: affects -1 + src:rust-async-std

This is a dh-rust bug. When the build is done with the `nocheck` 
profile, `cargo package` is still called in dh_auto_install. `cargo 
package` expects the registry to be populated by the crate's 
dependencies, so the build fails if d/control uses the <!nocheck> 
qualifier for the B-Ds and these are not installed by other means. In 
other words, the way dh-rust currently does things requires B-Ds to be 
installed even if `nocheck` is used.

Downgrading severity to important because I couldn't find anything in 
the policy or in https://release.debian.org/testing/rc_policy.txt to 
suggest that packages must build with the `nocheck` profile. The 
reported justification "Justification: fails to build from source (but 
built successfully in the past)" is inaccurate because the packages do 
in fact build from source with the default profile.
