The r1beta4 build-packages were loaded into the system-packages for haikuporter this evening and haikuporter buildmaster [was pointed at them](https://github.com/haiku/infrastructure/commit/e536d1be8b2bd72f95571837dbf757abb0917e3b). Any build going forward should work as expected.

I just stumbled across this one. It would make a *great* GSOC project. It would benefit Haiku, and allow a student to focus on a rust-centric project.

See https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/tree/master/src/platform_impl Overall this project would be linking the winit crate to the various app_server API calls. It seems like getting basic windowing working would be a great project since...

one more quick note, this one feels "completable" within a GSOC project. My gut looks at other projects like "improving rust support across as many crates as you can" as...

Adding a ```-c``` to the build flags is enough to clear the error (so you can try again). Definitely happening on failed builds. ``` $ haikuporter/haikuporter pytouhou --get-dependencies (failed build)...

hm.. should haikuporter be doing this on startup? (if activated-packages exists, and i'm just starting up... delete it)

``` ./haikuporter --bootstrap lols | haikuporter --minimum lols etc.. lols_bootstrap-1.2.4.hpkg ```

Reducing the repo would help, but I don't think it is a solution. We currently have 31 recipes. icu and freetype are pretty much the only ones that could be...

interesting. @mmuman does a "deskbar" side of this exist somewhere? My deskbar menu is getting unruly on my desktop lately. Seems like quick access menus could also leverage this.
