Hi,

I installed rust like a year back and I am updating it regularly. A week back I got an error
as in title. Full trace back is as follows.

error: linking with `cc` failed: exit code: 1

  = note: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find Scrt1.o: No such file or directory
          collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

As it says Scrt1.o file not found. I worked around and I figured the problem, to specify ld library path in bashrc.

LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:$LIBRARY_PATH
export LIBRARY_PATH

This works well in terminal. But If I am compiling the file in emacs using cargo package, I get the same error.
Well, even before compiling it complains on the first line as linking failed with cc.

Any help!

Thank you.

Do you have gcc installed?

This is that I can see for now :confused:

I am using Ubuntu. Yes I have gcc installed

Quickly looking on google, it is possible that you don't have the 32 bit version of Scrt1.o.

Can you give us the output of locate crt1.o ?

I get this when locating the crt1.o

If I could read better it would be great...

Do you launch emacs from terminal too ?
Did you try to put this export in .profile instead (so that it is kept for the entire session and not just terminal session) ?
If both of those do not work, you will have to see what's wrong with emacs.
