Does this crate have a documented MSRV policy anywhere? It seems strange to me to bump to 1.67 (breaking any crates which support building on Debian) in a patch version in such a core ecosystem crate. |

We are discussing this on zulip https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/351149-t-libs.2Fcrates/topic/cc-rs.20MSRV.20policy We'd like to hear from others, on their expected MSRV requirements for cc |
It seems that Debian already vendors the cc crate, they have an old version of cc https://packages.debian.org/stable/rust/librust-cc+jobserver-dev |
This is unrelated to people building crates on Debian using cargo. For those who want x-lang LTO or to use a toolchain that is built on the same machines as the rest of their host crates pulled by cargo need to support 1.63. |
Thanks, that's a scenario I didn't consider. Is it possible to pin the cc version via Cargo.lock? |

Ah, I'd already responded at #1144 (comment) we can continue there to keep things in one place. |
