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.
Thanks for the heads up. Your plan sounds good to me.
