       If you have problems installing JoinMarket, with error message complaining about not having rust compiler, here's the fix. https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver/pull/805

       @kristapsk isn't it just a "apt install rustc"?I'm not very familiar with rust, but it is available on architectures that Debian supports, which includes armel/armhf/arm64.I also see it here: https://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/pool/main/r/rustc/What am I missing?

       @FreePietje  I don't think it's a good idea to introduce rust as a forced dependency just because of this for any architecture.Also, JoinMarket is used not only on Debian. I use it on Gentoo, for example. Which would mean forcing users to build rust from sources.

       @kristapsk I think that rust will become (eventually) a requirement 'in general', but besides that, fair point.

       @FreePietje IIRC the biggest problem is to bootstrap rustc from sources in a trustless way. How can you know for sure that rustc you are using to build rustc isn't trojaned? It's simpler with C or C++.

       @kristapsk I know that bootstrapping is a MAJOR challenge. I learned from the upstream issue that Drew Devault failed in doing so for Alpine (IIRC). And I know that it took Debian quite a while to do it for RISC-V.I trust Debian, so that makes it easy for me. But if you indeed want to do it all trustless from sources, that's a major challenge.
