#38289 closed defect (fixed)

rust @0.5: upstream only supports newer compilers

Component: ports Version: 2.1.3

Description

Originally reported in #38279.

The ​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).

r103858 worked towards fixing this. Also r103863 and r103864 and r103870 in larryv's sandbox will help fix this once they are merged back into trunk.
