Sorry for bothering you,

> Description: Rust systems programming language
>  Rust is a curly-brace, block-structured expression language.  It visually resembles the C language family,
>  but differs significantly in syntactic and semantic details.  Its design is oriented toward concerns of
>  "programming in the large", that is, of creating and maintaining boundaries - both abstract and operational
>  - that preserve large-system integrity, availability and concurrency. 
>  
>  It supports a mixture of imperative procedural, concurrent actor, object-oriented and pure functional
>  styles.  Rust also supports generic programming and meta-programming, in both static and dynamic styles.

Maybe the version-number of Rust is not new enough ?

If so, then isn't it the case, that Firefox-ESR will also need the
Rust-dependency sooner or later, since it is derived from Firefox-release ??
