==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

Re: SOLVED paru not building due to reqwest issue

# pacman -Q rust
rustup 1.26.0-5

# type -a rustc                     
rustc is /usr/bin/rustc

paru -S rust
gave rust and rustup in conflict so i removed rustup and it seems to be working fine.

thx!

Re: SOLVED paru not building due to reqwest issue

So you're using rustup and don't know what rustc is? WHY?!?

You installed a package that requires you to manage your rust installation yourself. If you're not going to do that, don't use rustup.

Re: SOLVED paru not building due to reqwest issue

i don't know exactly how rustup got there. i'd removed it a couple of years ago because things didn't work right can't remember what.

anyway, as per earlier post, after removal, it has built just fine.

thx again!
