I'm subscribed to bug-gnuzilla, but I haven't seen messages about this. Where does communication and coordination for IceCat happen these days? I'd like to help, and it's tough to work alone. > The bad news is that IceCat 68 has a new dependency: rust-cbindgen, > which itself depends on *245* other Rust libraries that are not yet > packaged for Guix. I see Efraim is already helping with this, which is great! Ivan Petkov and I worked a bit on the rust build system a while back, and although it works to a certain extent, I think neither of us would claim it's perfect. There is a lot of room for improvement, and I'm glad Efraim has been experimenting with it! =2D-=20 Chris --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEy/WXVcvn5+/vGD+x3UCaFdgiRp0FAl20kjIACgkQ3UCaFdgi Rp38BRAA0gb5vYv20/EWvIuhNNXn/6gWRYr4rPt9gMGdZEWG6EvHPkK9xtx0PhVa tVYoL6W4qvsigLmEUkG99NBDvRsQXRpUPLkpgtZvQk9AH6fsZqGBBUrEbJrrHP4H QIuvxPc0aorTka+xFMJY/LA4qGVenbG5eIoJW6BXhzTOzCiheuxybkaX/QWtnqVB XNuyFQNneFKnyzB18WU8GteYwAogccqTCyYa3sazGNXkPfO/DrXXMWf8VKoIvM2p mRjVVg1c2e8R/SQf/Hibi6W3loWKO2NrYaLNI4EndpokndMrQelG8Bi5lMkAHY5Z proAh2pBh1sP79Ch+KpKu/o3wOj1hYXxxWxTQlyJfbdkCH2VsTN4sC4grxff0oOE n+H6kJ7kliuMiMJ/nHRJLGafuXwxzBNin9lnx819PH3SYcNtVLq3xCC8kSkKhPOc ez3d2BgJ//w8ShkvxzWB2XPVB1diysWFhdZnbcjaYUYn+tUV3Qc53JvRsQQ+rLri C1NRjvL5M1za6DAlL7J95F9FxiJknCNWUG4KfJJv3NoamBbCypwG8y5OlVBkWKQn Tyjg9kxwM0A1I/U+F5WjNUMim3bLs0C0g7MmoxA8Hj7Dv/6ALROYgFIqDPRXV/7o AnHC5l5oesHnxmHBWzjiwvrtmHkvceWTrfOCJ5PECIIjJgsT91Y= =3vJg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
