Branch: pkgsrc-2021Q2, Version: 1.52.1nb2, Package name: rust-bin-1.52.1nb2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Rust is a systems programming language focused on three goals: safety,
speed, and concurrency. It maintains these goals without having a
garbage collector, making it a useful language for a number of use cases
other languages aren't good at: embedding in other languages, programs
with specific space and time requirements, and writing low-level code,
like device drivers and operating systems.

It improves on current languages targeting this space by having a number
of compile-time safety checks that produce no runtime overhead, while
eliminating all data races. Rust also aims to achieve "zero-cost
abstractions" even though some of these abstractions feel like those of
a high-level language. Even then, Rust still allows precise control
like a low-level language would.

This package installs a released binary.

   Log message:
   Correct the names for the NetBSD versions to use.

   This uses the faster "install.sh" script, and also omits the
   "rust-doc" subset, for a much faster installation.

   This is a temporary hack for this version, will be removed on
   the next go-around.

   Apologies for this going un-committed, only myself to blame.
   Should fix part of PR#56304.
