Originally created by @Akki2005 on GitHub (Jan 10, 2026).

While building CCExtractor on Linux/WSL with Rust enabled, the build can fail
late during linking if the Rust and C build state is inconsistent (e.g. partial
rebuilds or toolchain changes).

The resulting linker errors are hard to interpret for new contributors.
I’d like to work on improving early checks or clearer diagnostics for this case.
