So far, only Arch are using cbindgen-0.16.0. They use it for thunderbird 78.6.0 with rust-1.48.0 (and a patch to allwo that). Fedora are also using rust-1.48.0, but in thunderbird-78.6.0 they put cbindgen-vendor-0.14.3.tar.xz into the source and then build with the bundled cbindgen, see https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/thunderbird/blob/master/f/thunderbird.spec Specifically, at line 377 (blank lines removed) %if 0%{?use_bundled_cbindgen} mkdir -p my_rust_vendor cd my_rust_vendor %{__tar} xf %{SOURCE4} cd - mkdir -p .cargo cat > .cargo/config <<EOL [source.crates-io] replace-with = "vendored-sources" [source.vendored-sources] directory = "`pwd`/my_rust_vendor" EOL env CARGO_HOME=.cargo cargo install cbindgen export PATH=`pwd`/.cargo/bin:$PATH %endif More to the point, for firefox-85.0b4 (the latest) the minimum required version is 0.15.0 so I suggest that we stick with that (and rust-1.47.0) for the moment. No doubt things might change when firefox-86 betas appear. ĸen -- (The Balancing Monks) use small brass weights, none of them bigger than a fist. They work. Well, obviously they work.
