According to
https://churchyard.fedorapeople.org/orphans.txt

There are five orphaned dependencies in addition to rust-sevctl itself:

rust-codicon                   orphan                              0 weeks ago
rust-colorful                  orphan                              0 weeks ago
rust-iocuddle                  orphan                              0 weeks ago
rust-sev                       orphan                              0 weeks ago
rust-sevctl                    orphan                              0 weeks ago
