A -slackbuild for it is also available on slackbuilds.org. - -For stability against rust's 6 week release cycle, mrustc is frozen to support -building rust 1.19.0 from source. Once this is done, you can use this rust to -continue building each successive rust version until you get to the most recent -one. - -Here is a rough guide to bootstrap rust completely from source: - -* Build and install mrustc (from slackbuilds.org). You now have a fully - functional rust 1.19.0. -* Now build for rust 1.20.0, 1.21.0, 1.22.1, 1.23.0, 1.24.1, 1.25.0, 1.26.2, - 1.27.2 and finally 1.28.0. - -This slackbuild is currently compatible with each of those versions. -Since we are building completely from source, you only need the source -tarball of each version and not all the other binary files listed in -rust.info. Simply replace the version in the url. - -Example: - - VERSION=1.20.0 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=yes LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.21.0 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.22.1 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.23.0 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.24.1 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.25.0 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.26.2 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.27.2 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - VERSION=1.28.0 FULL_BOOTSTRAP=no LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes ./rust.SlackBuild - -You might prefer to do a full bootstrap for 1.20.0, which is what mrustc's own -bootstrap script suggests. The versions after that do not need a full bootstrap. - -After building the first version (1.20.0), remove mrustc and install -rust-1.20.0. Then build the next version and upgrade rust with the -result and carry on until you have built the final version. - -Additionally, I currently have a shell script which automates this whole -process to end up with the current rust package version: - -https://github.com/aclemons/slack-rust-bootstrap |
