It is reassuring to learn that.

It does, and thanks again.

Title:
  Newer rustc version needed in jammy to build chromium updates

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in rustc package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The next chromium version is making rustc mandatory to build. Chromium
  is a snap built from core22 so using the jammy packages, the build is
  currently failing because it needs libprofiler_builtins.rlib which
  isn't available.

  Upstream provides toolchain builds that can be used but only for amd64 so currently the snap is failing to build on arm
  https://launchpad.net/~chromium-team/+snap/chromium-snap-from-source-beta

  The version upstream is using is 1.75 but it's possible that a lower
  version would be enough for now if libprofiler was enabled
