Rustup v1.24.3 Release Notes
Release Date: 2021-05-31 // almost 3 years ago-
π This patch release focusses around resolving some regressions in behaviour in π the 1.24.x series. One problem, related to accounting for the release of data π blocks in the unpack slab allocator, fixed in pr#2779, would manifest in the π installer hanging during installation. A second, fixed in pr#2781, manifested in very early Rust versions (1.0 through 1.7) repeatedly having their checksums fetched despite already being installed. β Finally the heuristic which started warning that toolchains being installed may not work on the given host was improved in pr#2782 to reduce false-positive π rate and reduce worry among Windows users in particular.
β Added
- β Added the ability to configure the auto-self-update functionality. This will
be of most use when people are testing unreleased versions of Rustup and wish
to ensure they don't accidentally lose the test version, without having to
remember to run with
--no-self-update
all the time. pr#2763
π Changed
- We no longer delete the top level of
$RUSTUP_HOME/tmp
and$RUSTUP_HOME/download
meaning that if you have these set up as symlinks to another place, or bind mounts, etc. things should work. pr#2433 - We more gracefully handle outlier situations with unpack-RAM, panicing less often, clamping settings into viable ranges and warning instead. pr#2780
