Rust architecture bug
by resolver from LinuxQuestions.org on (#56CPX)
While I was trying to compile Firefox, because the provided one is outdated, I discovered that Rust is not properly configured in Slackware ARM.
You can try it yourself but basically rustc believes the architecture is
Code:armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihfin one place but
Code:arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihfin another spot, which causes it to demand that a new Rust std library be downloaded in binary form using the missing rustup utility. They don't even allow building it from source.
Can someone in the Slackware ARM project please fix this? I do not want to download binaries from the Rust community, and it's better to fix the original cause of the error rather than correct for it separately on each computer.
By the way, which is the platform "unknown"? Shouldn't it be set to slackwarearm somewhere in /etc?
