Had we tested
make installon buildbot... #19698m10e commentedon Sep 14, 2016
This is preventing installs for me too. Not sure if it matters, but I got it building a cross compiler from master branch with custom install dir (configure --prefix).
andoriyu commentedon Sep 14, 2016
@m10e you can always apply patch to rust-installer before it's merged upstream.
m10e commentedon Sep 14, 2016
@andoriyu Sure, so it's definitely not urgent. I was just weighing in with a +1. Thanks for the tip though!

Ideally the merged pull request should of only been merged when both when both pull requests were ready to be merged followed by updating the submodule. Unfortunately it did not work out that way, sorry for any issues I have caused...

I believe this should be tagged with the label regression-from-stable-to-nightly. @alexcrichton ?
alexcrichton commentedon Sep 27, 2016
Ah, didn't realize it was a regression, but in that case indeed!

cc @orbea this may be caused by #36360, mind helping to investigate?
tikue commentedon Sep 30, 2016
Is there a workaround for this currently? The latest nightly ICEs on code that previously compiled (I think due to #36816) so I wanted to compile from source with the merged fix, but now I'm hitting this.
cesarb commentedon Sep 30, 2016
@tikue Yes, the workaround is to revert commit 5e9149d. There will be a conflict when reverting, but it's easy to resolve. Nothing depends on that commit (and in fact it's broken), so reverting it causes no problems.
