Why does an error appear on compiling time v0.3.34 when installing wasm-pack?

Running

cargo install wasm-pack

I get many green lines of "Compiling" and then the following

   Compiling time v0.3.34

error: could not compile `time` (lib) due to 4 previous errors

What's happening and how do I fix it?

I'm trying out Rust so I don't know what to do with this. I'm on Ubuntu and my cargo --version is cargo 1.75.0

Solution

Those lints are newly-introduced:

invalid_reference_casting: 1.72 or later
invalid_nan_comparisons: 1.72 or later
invalid_from_utf8: 1.72 or later

Some of crates have "MSRV", which defines most lowest version that the crate maintainer make effort to be compiled. time's "MSRV" is latest stable and two prior version from it, so its MSRV is 1.74 as of writing (current latest stable release is 1.76.0).

I assume your toolchain is outdated.Try rustup toolchain list and update them by rustup update.
