Debian can run Rust coreutils |
 |
The coreutils package contains a collection of basic commands which handle navigating directories, moving, removing, and copying files. These core programs make up the basis of most UNIX-like operating systems, including Linux distributions. There are different implementations of the coreutils package with one of the most popular being the GNU implementation which is written in C. Recently an effort has been made to reimplement the coreutils package in the Rust language which offers some memory protection benefits. The Rust coreutils package now runs on Debian. "Rust/coreutils is now available in Debian, good enough to boot a Debian with GNOME, install the top 1000 packages, build Firefox, the Linux Kernel and LLVM/Clang. Even if I wrote more than 100 patches to achieve that, it will probably be a bumpy ride for many other use cases. It is also a terrific project to learn Rust." Additional information on the coreutils package written in Rust and how it works on Debian can be found in this blog post. |
