DockerContainer for Arch Linux users

[dns2utf8]

Hi all

I tried to build a DockerContainer but I have a strange error message:

error: could not find native static library `nvim`, perhaps an -L flag is missing?                                                   
error: Could not compile `neovim-rs`.

Can I build it with the stable toolchain?

Regards

Dockerfile:

# Build like this:

@dns2utf8 I ran into the same problem.

The following workaround works for me: change line 17-19 in Cargo.toml to toml [dependencies.neovim-rs] #git = "https://github.com/oakes/neovim-rs" path = "../neovim-rs"

Then from this directory run git clone https://github.com/oakes/neovim-rs ../neovim-rs

I don't quite get it, but this way everything compiles. :-) Possibly a Cargo bug, but I am not sure.

@oakes: Do you have any idea what's going wrong here?

PS: I am using rustup + rust nightly (cae6ab1c4 2016-11-05).
