rustc (1.20.0+dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=medium
|
|
|
|
Starting from version 1.20.0+dfsg1-1 (i.e. the previous version) the Debian
|
|
packages of rustc no longer fail their build if any tests fail. In other
|
|
words, some tests might have failed when building this and future versions of
|
|
the package. This is due to lack of maintainer time to investigate failures.
|
|
|
|
Many previous test failures were reported to upstream and did not receive a
|
|
timely response, suggesting the failures were not important. I was then
|
|
forced to patch out the test to make the build proceed, so several tests were
|
|
being ignored in practise anyway.
|
|
|
|
This brings the Debian package in line with the Fedora package which also
|
|
ignores all test failures. (Many other distributions don't run tests at all.)
|
|
|
|
If you think that the Debian rustc package is miscompiling your program in a
|
|
way that the upstream distributed compiler doesn't, you may check the test
|
|
failures here:
|
|
|
|
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=rustc
|
|
|
|
If you can identify a relevant test failure as well as the patches needed to
|
|
fix it (either to rustc or LLVM), this will speed up the processing of any
|
|
bug reports on the Debian side.
|
|
|
|
We will also examine these failures ourselves on a best-effort basis and
|
|
attempt to fix the more serious-looking ones.
