Description Kristoffer Grundström 2018-10-28 00:29:19 CEST

Description of problem: I wanted to compile and build my own local version of Thunderbird from their mercurial repo I first opened a terminal window and as root typed 'dnf build-dep thunderbird' and hit enter. Exiting from root to my normal user account I ran ./mach build and got the attached error. I then in another tab logged in as root and installed rust-src and moved back to the first tab and reran ./mach build and got the same error again. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.30.

How reproducible: All the time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a terminal window and login as root, then type dnf build-dep thunderbird  -y and hit Enter/Return.

2. Open another tab in that terminal window and copy-paste hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central source/ && cd source/ hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central comm/

3. Copy and paste echo 'ac_add_options --enable-application=comm/mail' > mozconfig

4. Type ./mach build and it can't find the rust compiler in $PATH.

Or have I installed the wrong package?

I used urpmf rustc and found it in rust-src

Comment 3 Kristoffer Grundström 2018-10-28 00:32:24 CEST

As you can see in the output I couldn't get mach to install the right package as bootstrap doesn't support Mageia yet.

$ urpmf /usr/bin/rustc
    http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/core/release/media_info/20181029-062607-files.xml.lzma
rust:/usr/bin/rustc

That's in rust, not rust-src.
