rust update proposal
Hi!
We're still at rust 1.76, and the current version is 1.79.0.
As I understand the problem, some of the previously supported NetBSD
versions are not supported in 1.77+ any longer.
I'd like to have a newer rust in pkgsrc because some software already
requires it.
My proposal:
- Import (most of) lang/rust as lang/rust176 (to follow the existing
naming convention from wip)
- Update lang/rust to 1.79
- In lang/rust/buildlink3.mk, add per-platform inclusion logic for
using lang/rust176 for those platforms that are not working with
1.79 (perhaps checking for RUST_REQ<=1.76 before doing that, and
setting BROKEN (or one of the other variables for this) if not).
- Make sure that packages requiring 1.77+ set RUST_REQ correctly so
that we save on bulk build cycles.
What do you think?
(When someone fixes the platform support, we can roll back part of
these changes and/or remove rust176.)
