Bug 682042 – x11-terms/alacritty with dev-lang/rust-1.33.0 - ?

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Trevor Slocum 2019-03-30 06:45:32 UTC]

Installing Alacritty requires dev-util/cargo, however Cargo is already supplied when compiling with dev-lang/rust-1.33.0

Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.

installing alacritty does not require dev-util/cargo, it requires virtual/cargo, which is satisfied by modern versions of rust which supply cargo.

something must be with your system,
before installing alacritty please make sure your packages are up to date.

emerge virtual/cargo virtual/rust dev-lang/rust -av1

and update cargo/rust symlinks just in case

eselect rust list
eselect cargo set <number>

Closing. Please provide portage output and build logs if your problem still exists.

[Comment 3 Georgy Yakovlev 2019-03-30 19:26:16 UTC]

the second eselect command I've provided is incorrect

eselect cargo set <number>

should be

eselect rust set <number>

^ this will likely resolve your issue
