Hi everyone,
We've pushed a new version to the beta testing stage for you all to try.
Remember, first uninstall the beta version you had (rustup self update
without the RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT
variable set) and then you can install the new beta.
If you're updating an existing system, then set RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT=https://dev-static.rust-lang.org/rustup
and then run rustup self update
. If you're fixing up CI, then ensure that environment variable is set before you start the rustup installation process and things should proceed properly.
You can tell if you have the right version by running rustup dump-testament
which for the current beta should read:
Rustup version renders as: 1.24.2 (34cd8a5b7 2021-05-10)
Current crate version: 1.24.2
Built from branch: stable
Commit info: 1.24.1+76 (34cd8a5b7 2021-05-10)
Working tree is clean
This beta contains a new slab allocator for the unpacker which should ameliorate the VMA space fragmentation experienced on some platforms.
We would very much appreciate feedback.
