Just a heads up - firefox-70.0 (due 22nd October) will need a newer version of rustc than 1.35.0. The current release is 1.37.0 (or at least it was when I looked a few days ago) and that builds with the current instructions.
If anybody wants to use the patch for system graphite2 and harfbuzz, I've uploaded the latest patch to patches/ as 70.0 ... -0a since it is for a pre-release version and might need to change before the release (if upstream change any of the altered configure files: I think I've seen that once in testing previous betas). As well as a newer rustc, it also needs the current versions of cbindgen, nspr, nss, sqlite3. And harfbuzz if using the patch. This version of rustc can build cbindgen-0.9.1, firefox-69.0.1, librsvg-2.46.0, thunderbird-68.1.0. However, I expect rustc-1.38.0 will arrive in the coming week so for the moment I do not intend to put 1.37.0 into the book. ĸen -- thread 'main' panicked at 'giraffe', /tmp/rustc-1.32.0-src/src/test/run-fail/while-panic.rs:17:13 -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
