Compilation is only tested with very recent stable versions of `rustc`. If you use a distro with older Rust packages, consider using [rustup](https://rustup.rs/) to install a newer toolchain.

On systems using alternative (non-glibc) C standard libraries like `musl`, `cargo` must be configured to not link the libc statically. Otherwise, blocks needing to link to system libraries like `temperature`, `sound` (for pulseaudio) and maybe others will not be usable due to segmentation faults. To configure `cargo` for this, just add this to your `~/.cargo/config.toml`:

```toml
[build]
rustflags = ["-C", "target-feature=-crt-static"]
```
