Cover letter [Buildroot] [Patch v5 0/7] Add support for the Rust programming language

Hi Eric,

Quoted 7 lines · Eric Le Bihan

This series adds support for the Rust programming language by adding the following packages:

- rustc: a virtual package for the Rust compiler.
- rust-bin: provides a pre-built version of rustc.
- rust: builds rustc from source.

Quoted 8 lines

Both providers are able to cross-compile code for ARM, MIPS, PowerPC and x86_64 architectures. Only the host variants are provided.

The rustc virtual package is inspired by the mysql one.

As the Rust compiler is written in Rust and uses Cargo, the Rust package manager, as build system, two additional packages are provided: rust-bootstrap and cargo-bootstrap.

Many thanks for the work! I'll look into it, when I've some spare time.
