[ariasuni]

It seems you’re using Windows. I supposed you tried building exa after #820 was merged? Could you give more info and a more complete backtrace?

[lucasjinreal]

Yes, am on windows, so I am not able make it install or built.

[ariasuni]

It seems like you posted a small extract of the error message you get. Could you post the command you ran and the complete output?

[mimikun]

Yes, same issue here

[ariasuni]

Any idea @skyline75489?

Maybe same as #1167.

[skyline75489]

cargo install exa won't work, because there's no release containing Windows support yet. I can compile it using source code and rustc 1.63.0 (4b91a6ea7 2022-08-08) just fine

[lucasjinreal]

I was unable to build with rustc 1.65 on windows.

[skyline75489]

I think 1.65 is untested & unsupported atm. In rust-toolchain.toml, 1.63 is specified.

[lucasjinreal]

that would be sad since all my toolchains using rust 1.65

[lucasjinreal]

I think it would be better for a utility lib support a more widely toolchains versions

[skyline75489]

I just tired a clean build from source with rust 1.65 and it works. Are you building from source or using cargo install exa? The newest release 0.10.1 doesn't have the Windows support code, so cargo install exa won't work

[lucasjinreal]

Update: I was using 1.67actually, 2023-01-10 version.
cargo install exa not work.

[skyline75489]

Yeah, as I said cargo install exa does not work because there's no newer release with Windows support. To build it on Windows, you have to build it from source.

[lucasjinreal]

I tried source not work as well
