rust-derivative failed to build from source in Fedora rawhide/f38

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=96449529


For details on the mass rebuild see:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_38_Mass_Rebuild
Please fix rust-derivative at your earliest convenience and set the bug's status to
ASSIGNED when you start fixing it. If the bug remains in NEW state for 8 weeks,
rust-derivative will be orphaned. Before branching of Fedora 39,
rust-derivative will be retired, if it still fails to build.

Comment 1 Fabio Valentini 2023-02-20 17:50:50 UTC

Failure already reported upstream (no response yet):
https://github.com/mcarton/rust-derivative/issues/106

I have not disabled the test, since according to the upstream Rust compiler change that likely caused this failure, it can point at unsound code.

Comment 2 Fabio Valentini 2023-04-25 16:40:15 UTC

The upstream project looks pretty much dead, there's been no activity since 2021 and no response to my bug report.
I've now gone ahead and pushed a change to skip the one failing test, which is enough to fix the FTBFS issue across all branches of Fedora.
