Hi All,
I hope someone here is familiar with this issue and can point me in the right
direction. I have been trying to build Seamonkey 2.53.1 for a while now, but to
no avail. Whichever mozconfig settings I take, I always get kicked off the
build with an error on nsstring v0.10.
The error is:

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? I have cargo and rustc
installed, and am compiling with gcc.
Thank you for any input!
regards,
Hendrik-Jan Heins
Not sure if it is impportant: gcc on Arch is 9.2.0, on Debian 8.3.0.
But both produce the same error (as mentioned above)
Use rust 1.36. rust 1.37 might also work.

Thank you FRG!
For anyone with the same issue:
I ended up installing "rustup"
Within rustup, I installed and set rustc 1.36.0 as default
Then I built the package and after quite some time (single thread as I needed
to see where it would potentially fail), I now have a working seamonkey-2.53.1
on Arch.
We are trying to get latest rust support into 2.53.2 at least for Linux.
Unfortunately rust is more or less alpha/early beta quality wrt features and
deprecation and a constantly moving target.
