Hey, Rustaceans!

I'm here to announce the version 0.2.0 of Xargo!

For those that don't know, Xargo is a "transparent" Cargo wrapper that builds and manages "sysroots"

for targets that don't have binary releases of standard crates like core . In a nutshell, you can

use Xargo, just like you'd use Cargo, to cross compile Rust program/libraries for no_std targets

like thumbv7em-none-eabihf . See below:

The notable changes for this release:

Xargo no longer depends on the cargo crate or the curl crate. This means that Xargo doesn't

depend on libcurl.so , libssh2.so , etc. either. This makes Xargo easier to cargo install (no

more weird C compiler/make/cmake errors, yay!) and also makes its binary releases more portable.

This makes Xargo easier to (no more weird C compiler/make/cmake errors, yay!) and also makes its binary releases more portable. But, to achieve that, Xargo now depends on the rust-src component being installed (Xargo will no

longer download the Rust source itself). You can install it using rustup: rustup component add rust-src .

Enjoy!

P.S. error-chain is awesome!

P.P.S. Cargo's flock is also awesome!
