Rust Update Policy
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Given that for some distributions it's not feasible to keep up with the
|
||||
pace of Rust, we promise to only bump the minimum required Rust version
|
||||
following those rules:
|
||||
|
||||
- Only up to the Rust requirement of other major Linux desktop
|
||||
components, e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
- `Firefox ESR <https://whattrainisitnow.com/release/?version=esr>`__:
|
||||
`Minimum Supported Rust Version:
|
||||
<https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/writing-rust-code/update-policy.html#schedule>`__
|
||||
|
||||
- latest `Linux Kernel Rust requirement
|
||||
<https://docs.kernel.org/process/changes.html#current-minimal-requirements>`__
|
||||
|
||||
- Only require a newer Rust version than stated by other rules if and only
|
||||
if it's required to get around a bug inside rustc.
|
||||
|
||||
As bug fixes might run into rustc compiler bugs, a rust version bump _can_
|
||||
happen on a stable branch as well.
