This repository aims to build the Rust compiler without using the Rust compiler binary.
http://vxer.org/lib/pdf/Reflections%20on%20Trusting%20Trust.pdf
The following was tested on Debian 9. Total build time is 2-3 hours because of lack of parallelism in the rustc bootstrap phase.
sudo apt install build-essential cmake curl git diffoscope libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev pkg-config libssh2-1-dev
./go-fetch
# from this point on, there should be no network access
./go-build
./go-compare
diffoscope result will be in report.md and various logs in *.log.
After building, do the following:
mkdir trusted
cp -a trust-rust/rust/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage2/* trusted
PATH=`pwd`/trusted/bin:$PATH
rustc -V should produce rustc 1.19.0-dev (0ade33941 2017-07-17).
