Servo is a web browser engine written in the Rust language. It is
currently developed on OS X and Linux.
Note: Servo requires a bleeding-edge version of Rust. Sometimes this
means working off of the Rust _master_ branch; sometimes this means
the _incoming_ branch. Because Rust is still undergoing major changes
the Servo build is very often broken. Somebody in #servo or #rust
will usually know what magic is required to make Servo build on any
given day. Good luck!
Note: Servo requires a bleeding-edge version of Rust. The Rust commit
most recently tested is listed below. Servo often doesn't build
against Rust _incoming_ or _master_ branches, due to upstream language
changes. If you want to unbreak Servo against the latest Rust build,
somebody in #servo or #rust will usually know what magic is required
to fix the build.

#### MacPorts
Currently, the Makefile for the rust-azure submodule has a hardcoded
library path that assumes cairo has been installed with homebrew. If
you have installed with MacPorts, you will need to change the library
path to cairo. The following command should apply a patch with the fix:
cd src/rust-azure && git diff 1e811d44^1 1e811d44 | patch -p1
Currently, the Makefile for the `rust-azure` submodule has hardcoded
library paths that assumes cairo has been installed with homebrew or
MacPorts. If you have installed cairo via another methods or a
different version, you will need to change the library path.
This problem should go away once Issue #40 is fixed, and an
externally-built cairo is no longer needed.
