Description

proc-macro-error is unmaintained

Details
Status unmaintained
Package proc-macro-error
Version 1.0.4
URL https://gitlab.com/CreepySkeleton/proc-macro-error/-/issues/20
Date 2024-09-01

proc-macro-error's maintainer seems to be unreachable, with no commits for 2 years, no releases pushed for 4 years, and no activity on the GitLab repo or response to email.

proc-macro-error also depends on syn 1.x, which may be bringing duplicate dependencies into dependant build trees.

Possible Alternative(s)

See advisory page for additional details.
