1879242 - --enable-bootstrap=something doesn't prioritize the bootstrapped toolchain path

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: Bootstrap Configuration, defect)

Description

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

An example of how this manifests itself:

• Install cbindgen with cargo install cbindgen
• Run mach configure --enable-bootstrap=cbindgen
  Search for cbindgen in the configure output, and it will show it's using the one from ~/.cargo/bin instead of ~/.mozbuild/cbindgen.
  mach configure --enable-bootstrap is not affected.

(I found this while writing more extensive tests for --enable-bootstrap, so I'll add those at the same time as fixing this)

Attachment: Bug 1879242 - Make --enable-bootstrap=something properly prioritize the bootstrapped toolchain.

At the same time, add more extensive bootstrap unit tests.
