I am not aware of one. Genode's Rust support is not actively maintained. We just keep the existing test case working. > Somewhat related to that: I noticed similar issues with other ports as > well (e.g. bash is version 4.1 (pre shellshock afaict)): is there any > interest in updating the ports?

We simply don't pay much attention to keep those packages up to date because Noux is currently used in a rather narrow scope (i.e., not exposed to the network). But this may change any time. Contributions, however minor you think they are, are very welcome! :-) Cheers Norman -- Dr.-Ing.
