Description

Rust is a systems programming language focused on three goals: safety, speed, and concurrency. It maintains these goals without having a garbage collector, making it a useful language for a number of use cases other languages aren't good at: embedding in other languages, programs with specific space and time requirements, and writing low-level code, like device drivers and operating systems.

It improves on current languages targeting this space by having a number of compile-time safety checks that produce no runtime overhead, while eliminating all data races. Rust also aims to achieve "zero-cost abstractions" even though some of these abstractions feel like those of a high-level language. Even then, Rust still allows precise control like a low-level language would.

This package installs a released binary, on architectures supported by upstream, or a TNF-built binary, on NetBSD versions not supported by upstream.

cee2206967 Havard Eidnes rust199-bin: update to binaries based on rust 1.99.1.
bd8c606b58 Havard Eidnes rust199-bin: add a package corresponding to wip/rust199.
Missing for NetBSD in this round is binaries for NetBSD/i386 (i586-unknown-netbsd) NetBSD/mipsel (mipsel-unknown-netbsd) due to unforeseen and non-trivial build problems for those targets.
