Eh, even with Rust's static linking, that's not a guarantee that there will be no worries with deployment. Most SSL libraries in Rust, for instance, currently link to (Open/Libre)SSL dynamically. So you often can't take a Rust binary compiled on a distro with one version of the SSL library, to another distro with a different version.

- busterarm 6y agoSo you're saying that static linking isn't a guarantee, because the build was polluted with dynamic linking. Isn't that furthering my point?
- folmar 6y agoActually openssl is pretty compatible between versions, usually not an issue in the real world.
