[Jelle Licht]

2018-06-18 23:34 GMT+02:00 Nikolai Merinov <address@hidden>:

* gnu/packages/rust.scm (rust-source, rust-bootstrapped-package): Allow to
specify list of patches to rust sources. Update all rust new releases to use
`rust-bootstrapped-package' as base package.
(rust-1.19): Split `patch-test' code to several phases to make it easier to
change code in next releases.
(rust-1.23): Disable "run-pass/out-of-stack.rs" test due to rust issue #47863.
(rust-1.24): Instead of rewriting `patch-test' phase fix only required places.
(rust-1.25): Switch to LLVM 6.0 that was supported starting from rust 1.25
release. Enable "run-pass/out-of-stack.rs" back in release that can work with
glibc-2.27. Enable rust codegen tests back.
(rust): new package for 1.26.2 rust release with many changes in paths to old
tests.
* gnu/packages/patches/rust-coresimd-doctest.patch: use "avx" processor
feature for _mm256 operations.

I can verify that I have a working rust 1.26.2 at the end of a (very) long
build process. Could someone else still review the patch?
