git submodule init fails for "barn"

[johnterickson]

I tried looking for barn on cargo, google, etc. .gitmodules just points to "file://barn" Am I missing something obvious here?

Hey, the .gitmodules were broken. I just made a commit to fix and tested that the build works with rustc version 1.14.0-nightly (a7bfb1aba 2016-10-09). Does it work for you now?

[johnterickson]

Getting closer! But getting a very odd error (repros on a clean clone) where cargo can't find a commit that is definitely there ....

RUSTFLAGS="--sysroot=/home/john/RustOS -L ." cargo build --target i686-unknown-rustos-gnu --verbose

I even tried pointing directly to the new location of libfringe:

but still no luck.

Doesn't really seem to be specific to this project

Moving fringe to HEAD 87452b58e0a4cbef4973e81419d719b0b8fc298b seems to get things working
