But thunderbird-68.1.1 FTBFS : 6:20.66 error[E0506]: cannot assign to `self.input.cached_token` because it is borrowed Builds ok with 1.37.0 (and I did not look to see which version of llvm is shipped with 1.37.0, but I note that Arch build it with llvm-8.0.1). Given that stable thunderbird releases match firefox-ESR releases, I suspect that at some point we will need an old rustc for thunderbird, and a newer version for firefox - particularly with firefox accelerating its release schedule towards 4 weeks. But for the moment 1.37.0 will be good enough. 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
