No. I generally do not run tests. Therefore my wording ("did not
investigate
further consequences of disabling quiet-tests"). rustc is rather ugly
to
build and if stuff needing it (librsvg, firefox) is happy, I am too
;-) I'm
aware this isn't enough for the quality of the book, but that's why
I'm just
commenting instead of editing.
I agree about (most) tests, and the ugliness of building rust ;-)

*checking* No. 1.15.12 instead of 1.14.12. Sorry. I tend to decide
what's
stable enough for me myself. In case of librsvg I only had in mind
that it
started to require rustc from 2.41, but the book was already beyond
that
point, so I didn't check further dependencies.
Fair enough. I'm hoping nothing in gnome *requires* a newer
librsvg, because lots of things use cairo and would need to be
retested.

Entropy not found, thump keyboard to continue
I've updated GNOME in the past week, and nothing required it. I'm not
going to bother with GNOME-3.30 for a few days after it comes out, if
not longer. I'd like to have a stable system for a few days after all
:-)
