it wouldn't necessarily. you could just update rust, build firefox and test that. leave the others alone (with older rust).
now if the complaint is solely about rust, not specifically FF, then that's a different story. it might indeed be that FF is the only package using Rust right now?
- int_19h 7y agoBSD ports tree can be thought of as versioned as a whole, and packages are basically a snapshot of one particular state of it. If you update one port, and it's a dev dependency for other ports, their packages will reflect that.
- inferiorhuman 7y agoRight but you will also find versioned ports e.g. gcc4, gcc5, etc. It's not so unreasonable to assume the maintainers could / would do something similar with rust.
