rand_chacha: #1023 re-enabled a dependency on the simd feature of ppv-lite86 since at the time that wasn't enabled-by-default, but this should be fixed now: cryptocorrosion/cryptocorrosion#36. So I think we should remove this feature dependency again since it is deprecated.

Hmm, we could force a dependency on ppv-lite >= 0.2.10 to properly resolve the issue, or we could be lax and let cargo update do its thing (but inevitably some users will be left out). I'd prefer the stricter dependency requirement. CC @kazcw

I disabled the cargo deadlinks check since we can't fix those errors right now. See also rust-lang/rust#77200

Changelogs have today's date, but I'm not certain the release will happen today (esp. if review is required).

@dhardy Either approach to proactively removing the simd flag from the ppv-lite dependency could degrade the experience of some rand users. When I meant by deprecating the simd flag is that new code has no reason to use it, but it wouldn't hurt anything to leave it for continued compatibility without older versions of the crate.

@dhardy the deadlinks failure isn't related to rustdoc at all, it's deadlinks/cargo-deadlinks#120. You can ignore it for now with --ignore-fragments, which will still check the links exist, just not the URL fragments.

Also, FWIW you can simplify the build script by running cargo +nightly deadlinks -- --all-features --all instead of running cargo doc first. That will also respect doc = false if you have it set somewhere.

@kazcw I tested with ppv-lite86 0.2.9 and 0.2.10 and clearly the fix works. That said we've no reason to do this (until ppv-lite86 0.3) so I guess you're right that removing the change is better.

@jyn514 the link failure is real (from POV of rand_distr which is part of this repo), so I don't think it is that?

@dhardy this is the file I see for target/doc/rand/rng/trait.Rng.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=../../rand/trait.Rng.html">
</head>
<body>
    <p>Redirecting to <a href="../../rand/trait.Rng.html">../../rand/trait.Rng.html</a>...</p>
    <script>location.replace("../../rand/trait.Rng.html" + location.search + location.hash);</script>
</body>
</html>

What do you see? It exists, because the error reported is about a broken fragment, not a missing file.

@dhardy I have no doubt that 0.2.10 works correctly. I was referring to the cost to some users of forcing a dependency upgrade

I'm not sure what the cost of upgrading from ppv-lite86 0.2.8 to 0.2.10 is. The difference is only some patch releases, so cargo update should be enough?

This is a bit confusing. What exactly is reverted?

Maybe write 'Use deprecated feature "simd" of ppv-lite86 for improved compatibility'?

@jyn514 aha... I didn't realise doc/rand_distr/struct.Uniform.html links to <a href="../rand/rng/trait.Rng.html#method.gen_range">. Thanks for the help.

Force update:

  • update dates
  • remove the change on ppv-lite86 dependency feature
  • use --ignore-fragments on cargo-deadlinks

So much for fixing up the Travis CI. We don't get much notice do we: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/k8v6u2/travis_ci_is_no_longer_providing_ci_minutes_for/

Yeah, but I want to rebase after porting CI. Travis dropped our jobs just before validating this one. 😒
