Hey, there is some interest (the interested people are BCC'ed) in packaging [Rust](http://www.rust-lang.org). The packaging request is tracked here: Bug 915043 - Package rust (lang) There are two main parts to get the packaging done: (a) Get rust to use our pre-build llvm (b) Package the smaller dependencies For (a) it is looking better than a year ago, according to my knowledge all important patches are upstreamed into LLVM. So the task is mainly to find the right compile switches and possibly some patches to the build system to get Rust to build with our pre-build LLVM. For (b) we have at least three submodules which should be packaged: [submodule "src/compiler-rt"] path = src/compiler-rt url = https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-rt.git Not packaged yet [submodule "src/rt/hoedown"] path = src/rt/hoedown url = https://github.com/rust-lang/hoedown.git Not packaged yet [submodule "src/jemalloc"] path = src/jemalloc url = https://github.com/rust-lang/jemalloc.git Packaged. The unpackaged modules need to get packaged, and for the packaged ones the Rust build system needs updates to pickup the pre-build ones. Due to time constraints I can currently not help with packaging, but I can help review stuff as soon as there is something. But there is so much interest in packaging Rust that there are maybe some volunteers to drive the little tasks. - fabian -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
