#38289: rust @0.5: upstream only supports newer compilers ----------------------+-------------------- Reporter: larryv@… | Owner: g5pw@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Keywords: | Port: rust ----------------------+-------------------- Originally reported in #38279. The [http://static.rust-lang.org/doc/0.5/tutorial.html#getting-started Rust Language Tutorial] claims that compilation requires GCC 4.4 or newer or Clang 3.0 or newer. I’m not sure whether it’s best to blacklist/whitelist compilers based on that documentation, or to just let it be until people start reporting failures. That’s up to you, I guess. One thorn is that Apple’s Clang doesn’t report version numbers like trunk Clang does. So we can’t just blacklist anything “older” than Clang 3.0; the compiler_blacklist_versions PortGroup filters on Clang build number (e.g., 425.0.24). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38289> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
