# rust-rebootstrap

rebootstrap.sh is a shell script for helping myself to generate bootstrap tarball
for [OpenBSD ports tree](http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/ports/lang/rust), for architectures
I don't have access to (but which have already been ported).

It will download rust-bootstrap tarball, and compress it with tarlz for having
a bootstrap archive compatible with lang/rust port.

This way, it is possible to "regenerate" a bootstrap using fresh binaries, and ease the
update of the bootstrap from version to version.

Please note that it is a maintenance tool only. It is unable to generate bootstrap for
an architecture which doesn't have initial rust port.
