Came here to comment on needing to install rustup but saw the comments below -- thanks for the package!

@quininer installing rustup and doing `rustup default nightly` worked. Thanks!

quininer commented on 2017-01-07 10:28 (UTC)

@antouank use rustup.

@quininer Unfortunately rust-nightly also fails. ==> Validating source files with sha256sums... rustc-nightly-src.tar.gz ... FAILED docs.patch ... Passed ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build rust-nightly. Any idea when it will go on stable? Thanks.

@antouank Now you need to install rust-nightly or rustup.wait until proc_macro is stable before you can compile with stable channel. @wbthomason @aabmass @jonathanio thanks!

does anyone else get this error? error[E0554]: #[feature] may not be used on the stable release channel

@quininer: I believe you may also be missing a few other dependencies - specifically, cmake, freetype2, and fontconfig. Admittedly, I haven't tried building without these installed, but the instructions on the alacritty repo for Arch specify that they are build requirements (https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty#arch-linux). I'll also note that the infinality versions of freetype2 and fontconfig are acceptable substitutes; the manual build works on my system with these packages installed. Thanks!

Thanks for the package! Would you mind adding the desktop entry to this package? It's $srcdir/Alacritty.desktop

@quininer: The current version of rush (i.e. via makedepend) will not build alacritty - you need the latest nightly version - so I have not been able to build it. I've created a patch for you which will use rustup instead of rust for the install and set the appropriate override. I've followed the documentation as it gives a fixed version specification defined by the repository as a requirement, but potentially rust-nightly might be a better choice even if it's slightly ahead of the pinned version given in rustc-version. The patch also saves a copy of the configuration file into /usr/share/alacritty with an install message to tell users to install it before they first run it. https://gist.github.com/jonathanio/b9dcf05ef9e5ec5fc8763713ebe95187 Hope this helps.
