[slbsh]

this happenned on both the sirula 1.0.0-2 and sirula-git r69.bf216d7-2 AUR packages

error: expected one of `(`, `.`, `::`, `;`, `?`, `}`, or an operator, found `:`

rabite0/osstrtools#4
But upstream is dead so probably won't be merged

[colemickens]

Is that lib even needed? From a VERY fast skim, it seems like it's just used for a new prototype that is now available on OsStr directly? cc: @DorianRudolph

after removing use osstrtools...

[colemickens]

Yeah, there's definitely some more stuff used. I tried copying out the relevant bits from osstrtools into util.rs but... I lost interest and gave up. I don't really have bandwidth to keep playing with this right now. :/

[DorianRudolph]

Thanks for reporting, it should work now

@DorianRudolph would you mind doing a release? :)

[DorianRudolph]

@frederictobiasc what kind of release do you mean?

[frederictobiasc]

eg. creating a tag with a new version number so that I can bump the package repositories.
