Found crate `seahorse` compiled by an incompatible version of rust

help
1

After updating rust nightly via rustup and updating the rust-toolchain file, one of my dependencies (seahorse) keeps getting this error (other dependencies seem ok, though it seems to happen at the last step in compilation after all dependencies are compiled, so it seems to be more of a linking error, and maybe seahorse just happens to be the first to call the issue):

I'll note thatn running cargo clean did not seem to help, nor did running:

rm -fr target/debug/deps

What about rm -rf target

It seems that the same occurs:

$ rm -fr target/

To learn more, run the command again with --verbose.

I'm not sure what was confusing cargo, but deleting ~/.rustup and reinstalling the toolchain specified by my rust-toolchain file resolved the issue.
