cargo-c-0.10.18

Installation of cargo-c

First, download a file to ensure that cargo uses the dependency versions specified by the upstream developers when this cargo-c version (0.10.18) was released. Without this, the latest versions of the dependencies would be used and they might cause breakages:

curl -fLO https://github.com/lu-zero/cargo-c/releases/download/v0.10.18/Cargo.lock

Note

Normally we would put such a download into an “Additional Downloads” section. But in this case we cannot tell the package name and version from the file name Cargo.lock, so it's better not to put the ambiguously-named file outside the cargo-c-0.10.18 directory. We use curl here because the cURL-8.17.0 package should have been installed as a required dependency of rustc-1.91.0.

The sha256sum of the file should be 14e438039df865fbd1d4c68bc4ed61a2ee015c12f41bb47b942d4ee316d49d31.

The md5sum of the file should be e9c554e1949e40627c1856ed3334d894.

Install cargo-c by running the following commands:

export LIBSSH2_SYS_USE_PKG_CONFIG=1
export LIBSQLITE3_SYS_USE_PKG_CONFIG=1

cargo build --release

To test the results, issue:

cargo test --release

Now Install, as the root user:

install -vm755 target/release/cargo-{capi,cbuild,cinstall,ctest} /usr/bin/

Finally, unset the exported environment variables:

unset LIB{SSH2,SQLITE3}_SYS_USE_PKG_CONFIG
