guix: add rust
What changed, and why it matters
This commit adds the Rust programming language and its Cargo package manager to the Guix build environment manifest used for reproducible builds. It is a build-system dependency addition with no visible security fix or vulnerability.
No security action required. Treat as routine build-system maintenance. If Rust is being introduced to build a new dependency, verify that dependency's supply-chain and audit status separately.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change imports (gnu packages rust) and adds rust and (list rust “cargo”) to the Guix manifest in contrib/guix/manifest.scm. This enables Rust-based components or dependencies to be built within the Monero Guix reproducible build environment. There is no code change to Monero’s consensus, wallet, daemon, or network logic.
