Is the situation in rust, where the answer is apparently to vendor the world, much better? Don't many of the big rust libraries still depend on nightly, too?

- DougBTX 3y agoThe major difference with rust is that the core language has strong backwards compatibility guarantees, and the package manager supports installing multiple versions of transitive dependencies so packages can be updated incrementally.
- TylerE 3y agoRight. GP was complaint about having a gazillion versions of every dependency sitting around to satisfy various whims.
- School-Cotton 3y ago> Don't many of the big rust libraries still depend on nightly, too? No, none of them do, or at least none that I’ve ever seen in 4 years of doing rust full-time.
