Unable to install with cargo on Debian Bookworm #50

Closed GitPuffy closed 3 months ago

GitPuffy commented 3 months ago

What happened Following the installation instructions I received many "package <name>cannot be built because it requires <name/version> or newer, while the currently active <name/version> is ..." error messages

What I expected to happen Expected shpool to be installed

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

cargo install shpool

Version info OS: Debian Bookworm Linux <hostname> 6.6.31+rpt-rpi-v8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.6.31-1+rpt1 (2024-05-29) aarch64 GNU/Linux

Logs Unknown / not installed yet

Have you installed cargo via your package manager or via rustup? shpool's MSRV is 1.74, which is fairly new and a lot of distros aren't there yet (my debian flavored distro is currently only at rustc 1.70).

I used the Debian distro of cargo. I will look into removing it and installing cargo from rustup.

Ok. I'll close this for now, but this is on my radar. My plan is to just hold the line on the MSRV until it is building on more distros. At the least, shpool should build on Debian Testing without having to resort to rustup. Currently, my Arch box is on rustic 1.78 already so at least arch can build shpool fine, but my guess is most distros are not that bleeding edge.
