rust: Cross-compiling build no have final binary

kassane commented 2 months ago

During some tests on #3 it was noticed that when building a binary with rustc + zig cc for cross-compilation, the final binary is not built. Only the host target works!

Why not use `cargo-zigbuild`?

Currently, no have cargo-support in ABS (AnotherBuildStep) - TODO

rustc not show -C linker=zcc output...

~~rust need rewrite using cargo!!~~ :face_exhaling:

It may sound crazy, but by doing some tests using cargo-zigbuild instead of zigcc-wrapper in rustc cli commands, cross compiling successfully outputs the final binary.

WTF?? :eyes: Why won't rustc show the output of zcc?

$ cat $HOME/.cache/cargo-zigbuild/0.19.0/zigcc-aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-aef7.sh
#!/bin/sh
exec "/home/kassane/.cargo/bin/cargo-zigbuild" zig cc -- -g -target aarch64-linux-gnu "$@"
