In the medium term, cargo needs re-bootstrapping on the affected architectures (armel and armhf, plus a bunch of -ports architectures

that's #1065787, and Steve already replied to that bug describing how Ubuntu did this.

I don't think Ubuntu actually fixed cargo yet, at least if the data in
UDD is reliable -- and if I'm looking in the right place. :-)

udd=> select source,version,date from ubuntu_upload_history where source='cargo' order by date desc limit 2;
source | version | date
--------+--------------------------------------------+------------------------
cargo | 0.67.1+ds0ubuntu0.libgit2-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 | 2023-07-05 09:36:28+00
cargo | 0.67.1+ds0ubuntu0.libgit2-0ubuntu0.22.04.2 | 2023-07-05 09:36:27+00 (2 rows)

cargo in Ubuntu is built from the rustc source package.

Maybe when Steve mentioned the work done in Ubuntu on https://bugs.debian.org/1065787#22 he meant other packages?

Is there a porter who can take responsibility for that?

I did manage to get cargo to build in a armhf chroot by manually
installing the various deps, see the build artifacts at https://people.debian.org/~ema/cargo/. I can work on armel next. The
tests are green but maybe there's some more meaningful validation we can
do before uploading? Anyone from debian-rust has ideas or comments?
