 Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | you could build rust 1.72.1 with 1.72.0 i think i have some derivations for building rust with other rusts somewhere | 11:46:47 |
 Alyssa Ross | ideally we'd bootstrap from mrustc, but people don't like it | 11:48:32 |
| Alyssa Ross | current policy is not to keep old versions of rust around | 11:48:42 |
| Alyssa Ross | aha https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/113274 | 11:51:48 |

ideally we'd bootstrap from mrustc, but people don't like it yeah it makes the bootstrap path extremely unpleasant | 11:52:59 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | tried it out and it took around a day to get it built on just x86 with two pcs which are decently powerful | 11:53:46 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | tried it out and it took around a day to get rust 1.69 built on just x86 with two pcs which are decently powerful | 11:54:21 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | imagine that times however often nixos has a mass rebuild lol | 11:54:51 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | i think it might be better with cargo2nix since you could relatively easily run that on a server farm | 11:55:34 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | vs standard rust bootstrap which can only run on one system period | 11:56:11 |
 raitobezarius | I would not be shocked to use mrustc for mips though | 12:06:55 |
