Actually, I think the version of the note I came up with is even more confusing than the "downstream crate" note, and the current version is worse than both. |
That PR was also submitted with no "positive" test to see that it fixes the error message it is purported to fix. That feels clearly wrong to me. |

I think that PR is a problem (rust-lang#63145), but this makes the tests green for now.

…rors, r=estebank Revert "Rollup merge of rust-lang#62696 - chocol4te:fix_#62194, r=estebank" This reverts commit df21a6f (rust-lang#62696), reversing changes made to cc16d04. That PR makes error messages worse than before, and we couldn't come up with a way of actually making them better, so revert it for now. Any idea for making this error message better is welcome!

Relevant to the compiler team, which will review and decide on the PR/issue.
PR #62696 had removed the notes from the tests for the upstream/downstream printing logic, so now that logic is not tested:
2ced474
Plus, the new error messages are worse: an upstream impl can indeed be added, even if the crate is private.
I think that even in the OP case, some sort of note should be added, unless we change coherence. Again, the test case:
There, the error message is a coherence conflict for
&_: Send
, where this impl conflicts with the libcore impl, because the compiler can't prove that! &_: Private
.Now, the error message says that the reason that the compiler can't prove
! &_ : Private
is because of a possible downstream impl. Of course, no downstream impl can exist as the trait is private, however, I don't think we want to change coherence to account for that, especially not without an RFC.Maybe a wording change is in order?
I don't think the "upstream" message needs to change any (see the test diff), it's still good in the private case. Maybe it should try to mention a non-private trait, but that would be some work.
Say, for non-exported trait, change the note to say:
I'm not even sure the note is a problem, I personally like the state before the PR the best.
