[Internal Compiler Error] `rustix` v0.36.4 or later not documentable anymore with Rust 1.69.0

[kevinmatthes]

Code

Try to document any crate which has rustix v0.36.4 or later as dependency using cargo doc. Projects with Clap v4.1.8 or later usually have rustix as implicit dependency. Tested with Clap v4.1.8 (→ rustix v0.36.4) and v4.2.4 (→ rustix v0.36.9).

query stack during panic:

end of query stack
error: could not document `rustix`

[kevinmatthes]

As this behaviour seems to occur only when attempting to document rustix, I also informed the rustix team about it; bytecodealliance/rustix#624.

[clubby789]

Duplicate of #110626 (and the linked issues), I think. The fix has landed in 1.70.0

[kevinmatthes]

Thank you for your answer. When will Rust 1.70.0 be available for download by rustup?

[clubby789]

You can see the release schedule here - June 1st

[kevinmatthes]

Thank you very much! This solves the problem for me!
