Current evaluation

Snapcraft rust plugin fails with Rust 1.27: 'could not execute process rustc -vV (never executed)'; 1.26.2 works. 8 years old, zero comments, no maintainer response. The plugin has since been substantially rewritten.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The issue is 2989 days old with zero comments and no maintainer interaction, and the failure is specific to Rust 1.27 (Nov 2018) on the retired build.snapcraft.io CI. The current snapcraft repo shows a modern rustup-based rust plugin, so the original version-specific problem is no longer reproducible or applicable to supported versions.

Impact: 5 Quick Win: 3.75 Staleness: 95 Complexity: 25 Confidence: 65 Support Request: 10
