Thanks for mentioning this, but things have progressed (there is a
patch for rust-1.39.0, I think a sed will do). I've created #13271
and I intend to test it after I've worked out why I cannot get
libreoffice to build ;-)
At the moment, fedora continue to build seamonkey so I guess there
is some demand for it.
