Unable to build Czkawka 9.0.0 on Ubuntu

[jhonny-oliveira]

Hi!

I'm having trouble attempting to compile czkawka in any Ubuntu version.

To begin with, I get this error:

cargo build --offline --release --bin czkawka_gui
error: failed to load manifest for workspace member `/build/package/package/czkawka_core`
referenced by workspace at `/build/package/package/Cargo.toml`

Caused by:
  failed to parse manifest at `/build/package/package/czkawka_core/Cargo.toml`

Caused by:
  feature `edition2024` is required

  The package requires the Cargo feature called `edition2024`, but that feature is not stabilized in this version of Cargo (1.84.1 (66221abde 2024-11-19)).
  Consider adding `cargo-features = ["edition2024"]` to the top of Cargo.toml (above the [package] table) to tell Cargo you are opting in to use this unstable feature.
  See https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/unstable.html#edition-2024 for more information about the status of this feature.

I applied this patch:

And I get this error:

cargo build --offline --release --bin czkawka_gui
     Locking 884 packages to latest Rust 1.85.0 compatible versions
error: rustc 1.84.1 is not supported by the following packages:

  czkawka_core@9.0.0 requires rustc 1.85.0
  czkawka_gui@9.0.0 requires rustc 1.85.0

Then, I relaxed the rustc version.

The most recent version of cargo/rustc available in Ubuntu is: 1.84.1.

Is there any way you can help me successfully build Czkawka 9.0.0 with cargo/rustc version 1.84.1 available on Ubuntu plucky (25.04)?

Thank you!

Why not change the edition to "2021"?
After changing the edition and rustc, the project compiles properly on my machine.
