Bug 842246 – rust-toolchain.eclass: needs major overhaul

• Status: CONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Georgy Yakovlev 2022-05-02 21:49:22 UTC]

currently there are multiple problems with the eclass that need addressing:

* CHOST matcher assumes only upstream-provided triplets
* SRC_URI assumes only upstream dist tarballs
* the whole matching is hacky and hardcoded, it needs to be improved.
* mixes sh and bash syntax, should consistently use the latter

    profiles/arch/sparc: force dev-lang/rust[system-bootstrap]
    
    Needed for now until dev-lang/rust learns how to use our
    bootstrap tarball which we inject into dev-lang/rust-bin
    for sparc.
