Add rust-toolchain file #1122

Closed svenstaro closed 4 years ago

svenstaro commented 4 years ago

This makes sure that people will always have the correct nightly build that this works with. It also makes sure the build is reproducible (as different nightly version might behave differently).

Thanks, but I fear it can be outdated too quickly. Maybe binary release (#1119) is better.

svenstaro commented 4 years ago

I still think it would make a lot of sense in terms of reproducibility for distro packagers like me. Maybe consider maintaining a rust-toolchain in the future. :)

Probably it doesn't get outdated that quickly.

kngwyu commented 4 years ago

OK, now I think I understand the merit and decided to merge this for now, though I'm not sure I can handle this effectively.

Sadly and ironically, as it turns out, the particular version 2020-07-21 is broken. I'm using nightly-2020-07-20 and that works fine.
