Build failure through sdl2

[alexchandel]

When I pull hematite and run cargo build, I get this:

Could not compile `sdl2`.

--- stderr
src/sdl2/audio.rs:264:100: 264:109 error: wrong number of lifetime parameters: expected 1 but found 0 [E0107]

We are using the most recent version of SDL2, so this should probably be filed as a bug over here: https://github.com/AngryLawyer/rust-sdl2.

Closing for now.

Don't you mean https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/rust-sdl2#29f1db0b ? When I build hematite, this is what it tries to build.

@alexchandel Try cargo build -u

[alexchandel]

$ cargo build -u
The -u flag has been deprecated, please use the `cargo update` command instead
$ cargo update
A Cargo.lock must exist before it is updated

And of course cargo build fails because the packages are outdated. I'm really growing to hate cargo.

@alexchandel Somebody mentioned that deleting ~/.cargo fixes it.

[alexchandel]

~/.cargo

Are we really still considering dumping crap in the user's home directory in 2014?

Where else would you put it? Besides, that's a cargo issue.

What do you think ~/.config, ~/.cache, and ~/.local are for?

[alexchandel]

But deleting this fixed everything except a ld: library not found for -lSDL2, which was remedied by installing SDL2.
