``rustup`` Toolchain
====================

If you use ``rustup``, you need to configure what toolchain you want
to use. We set the default in the file ``./rust-toolchain`` to ``system``:

    # cat rust-toolchain
    system

This works if you have installed the ``rustc`` Debian packages, and told
``rustup`` the location of that link:

    # rustup toolchain link system /usr


Versioning of proxmox helper crates
===================================

To use current git master code of the proxmox* helper crates, add::

   git = "ssh://gitolite3@proxdev.maurer-it.com/rust/proxmox"

or::

   path = "../proxmox/proxmox"

to the proxmox dependency, and update the version to reflect the current,
pre-release version number (e.g., "0.1.1-dev.1" instead of "0.1.0").

Local cargo config
==================

This repository ships with a ``.cargo/config`` that replaces the crates.io
registry with packaged crates located in ``/usr/share/cargo/registry``.

A similar config is also applied building with dh_cargo. Cargo.lock needs to be
deleted when switching between packaged crates and crates.io, since the
checksums are not compatible.

To reference new dependencies (or updated versions) that are not yet packaged,
the dependency needs to point directly to a path or git source (e.g., see
example for proxmox crate above).
