rbw fails to build due to crate `Region` failing to build

[nikkicoon]

I'm trying to package rbw for pkgsrc (I'm building on NetBSD/amd64, but it's a multi platform system PM).

It currently fails to build, I've reported this upstream at https://github.com/darfink/region-rs/issues/23 but it looks like after 1 year no commits that the crate has been abandoned by its developer.

Old log included in upstream link, new log:

Stop.

The actual core issue might be that region needs to have a NetBSD implementation added? I haven't worked much with rust.

yeah, it does look like the issue is a missing netbsd implementation. unfortunately, i don't have access to any netbsd machines, so i can't help here myself/:

I'm getting the exact same error. Would love to use rbw on NetBSD. Might try rally some support in the BSD community.

@pfr-dev this, https://github.com/darfink/region-rs/pull/14 fixes it but, it hasn't been merged.

[0323pin]

@nikkicoon and @pfr-dev, I've just pushed a package to the wip-repository, please do some testing.

Thanks! I can confirm this is working on NetBSD 9.3_Stable

[0323pin]

I've now merged the package into the main branch.

It would be good to get that commit merged into region, though. Carrying this workaround for a long time may turn out painful.

[pfr-dev]

It would be good to get that commit merged into region, though.

Patch has been merged and a new release tag v3.0.1 created.

Thanks @0323pin !

i've bumped the region dependency in 5c47355, and this should be included in the 1.10 release. thanks for the work here!

[0323pin]

@doy Thanks! Is a new release planned?

[doy]

just released!
