I would really like to avoid putting a big version update of rust (1.36 to 1.40) into SLE after we are just now releasing RC1. General rule is that during RC Phase we are only accepting P1 fixes and nasty P2 fixes into the product.

Could we instead use the sources we have in SLE right now and apply the spec changes to let it build with llvm9?

That's not so easy, the rust guys usually have to put in quite a bit of work to keep up with the API churn between major LLVM releases, see for example this PR for LLVM 9 support: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/62474. That's in rust 1.38 earliest, if I read GitHub correctly, so you'd have to port that back. That's why I proposed to change rust to use llvm7-devel but otherwise update to LLVM 9 as default. On the other hand rust developers love to live on the bleeding edge, so maybe they'd actually appreciate the update? I don't know. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
