0.23.3 - 2026-04-16

Changed

• downloadCargoPackage now extracts tarballs with --no-same-owner.
  Ultimately this should make no difference since the Nix store will reset all
  ownership permissions anyway, but it may avoid some spurious errors on certain
  systems.
• buildPackage and buildDepsOnly now has a cargoBuildExtraArgs option for
  passing arguments specifically to cargoBuildCommand.
• cargoNextest now accepts cargoNextestArchiveExtraArgs for passing
  flags to cargo nextest archive invocations.
• writeTOML now, by default, refers to writeTOMLViaCraneUtils to minimize
  dependency chains on non-Rust projects. Bringing back the old behavior (using
  remarshal) can be done via craneLibRemarshal = craneLib.overrideScope (final: prev: { writeTOML = final.writeTOMLViaRemarshal; });

Deprecations

• mkCargoDerivation (and by extension all utilities which delegate to it) no
  longer support overriding the stdenv used for mkDerivation via an
  attribute. Instead any such overrides should be done at the craneLib level
  via the new stdenvSelector function. For example: (crane.mkLib pkgs).overrideScope (final: prev: { stdenvSelector = p: p.clangStdenv; });
