Fails to build under Linux.

[jasonjgw]

The Python module fails to build under Linux:

• The architecture is set in .cargo/config.toml to 32-bit Windows x86.
• Once this file is removed, the code in build.rs fails, since the "Rules" directory does not exist, hence cannot be deleted.

Would it be better to separate out the Python module completely from the NVDA-specific code (e.g., one repository for the Python module and another for the NVDA add-on)? Then a Linux package would simply distribute the Python module.

If not, what other approach should be taken to get a platform-independent Python module that isn't bound up with Windows/NVDA?

This isn't urgent, of course; it won't matter until someone starts to develop Orca support. I am creating this issue for tracking purposes.

I thought I fixed this, but it was only a partial fix. I moved the "target" part to the shell script build-addon.sh but didn't remove the .cargo dir.

I removed the "rmdir" from build.rs and put it in the shell script. I renamed the script to build-nvda-addon.sh to make its purpose clearer.

location in buid.rs probably should be put inside a cfg, but since I don't know what it should be for ORCA, I'm leaving that to later.

Let me know if there are still problems.

Thank you - I was able to build it successfully.
