Description tt_1 2022-03-19 18:44:10 UTC
so, I just wanted to notify you guys that the minimal rust version to compile librsvg-2.52 branch is not constanst through the series of subsequent point releases. 

librsvg-2.52.5 (never been in tree I believe) needs at least rust-1.53.0 because it makes use of option_insert, which is still an unstable feature in rust-1.52.1, as you can see here: 

212619-error[E0658]: use of unstable library feature 'option_insert': newly added

213101:error: could not compile `librsvg`

librsvg-2.52.6 needs at least rust-1.54.0 as it has a patch merged using a newer version of cfg_expr crate in vendor, which makes use of extended_key_value_attributes and is causing this beauty: 


error[E0658]: arbitrary expressions in key-value attributes are unstable

error: aborting due to previous error

For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0658`.
error: could not compile `cfg-expr`


so my conclusion at the moment is to raise minimum rust version of librsvg-2.52.6 to 1.54.0

If I can recall it correctly from memory, librsvg-2.54.x branch uses rust 2021-edition, and therefore needs at least rust-1.56.0

The motivation behind this bug is, that there are a bunch of users who can't use the gentoo ebuild from tree, but have to bootstrap their own rustc version. This is everyone who uses musl as the libc and is not on amd64 or arm64.

It's strange that you're the only one reporting it if there are a bunch of users affected.

Anyway, I'm happy to update the required version, but I'm not going to spend a large amount of time investigating what that required version should be, exactly.

its actually upstreams fault for not documenting the changes in their readme, tried many times to contact them but can't recover my password for their bugzilla/gitlab :-/
