Hey Andrew!

 AA> Thank you for trying it out and for the feedback.

I had the feeling that is what you were really fishing for in your original post.  ;-)

 AA> And for the reminder not to look for problems when there aren't
 AA> any.

Yep.  I hear you there, especially when there are real problems that are getting ignored.  :::shrugging shoulders:::

 AA> Is the breakage related to the release of rust 2021 or something
 AA> else?

Right now I am using rustc-1.50.0, which I believe to be the latest and greatest, but the breakage in firefox happened earlier.  I suspect firefox to be the culprit given that what little else I am using that requires rust are doing fine.  The last successful firefox build was firefox-78.0.2esr but I don't recall which rust although rustc-1.42-ish comes to mind.  I can backtrack to find out for sure if it matters any.  However my plan is to wait and see what happens before doing anything serious about it.  I do have a working seamonkey-2.53.6 which doesn't have issues with rustc-1.50.0 so not all is lost ... yet.  The trouble with firefox is that it isn't all that informative as to why it is crapping out when compiling.

Anyhow, given that slackware-current is seeing the same problem and have yet to fix it tells me that backing off for awhile is probably the right idea for now.

 AA> Have a great weekend, Maurice... :) Always nice to chat with
 AA> you...

Agreed.  Take care of yourself and I am sure we will be chatting in the near future.

Life is good,
Maurice
