Hi,
I've been preparing clamav upload for stable and noticed that one of its
rust bits requires rustc 1.87.0. There was once rust-web but this is
gone now.
I could try to downgrade it but there was a bug against an earlier
version where it failed to read (some) .tiff files and fix was a newer
rust component for it. Wouldn't be surprised if something similar did
happen for jpeg, too (the package asking for newer rustc is zune-jpeg).
The NEWS file for 1.4.4 mentiones rustc 1.87 as the minimum.
I guess the only way forward is via -bpo?
I think it is just a matter of time before rustc-web has to be
reintroduced for Trixie (via chromium/firefox-esr) - AFAIK Andres (CCed)
is already working on preparing it(s prerequisites).
I'm hoping Emilio will handle rustc-web. I'm handling the
llvm-toolchain-22 backport (which newer rust depends upon), but I keep
hitting issues. I'm hoping to get that in before the next chromium early
release in a week, though.
