Description
Code
// in crate A:
#![feature(generic_const_exprs)]
pub trait Conf: {
const LAYER_COUNT: usize;
}
pub trait Buggy: {
const TEST: u8 = 0;
}
impl<T: Conf> Buggy for T where [(); Self::LAYER_COUNT]: {}
//in crate B
use A::{Buggy, Conf};
struct UserStruct {}
impl Conf for UserStruct {
const LAYER_COUNT: usize = 0;
}
fn main() {
UserStruct::TEST;
}
Current output
error[E0275]: overflow evaluating the requirement `[(); A::::{impl#0}::{constant#0}] well-formed`
|
= note: required for `UserStruct` to implement `Buggy`
For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0275`.
Desired output
error: evaluating Well formedness require the generic_const_exprs feature to be activated in crate B
= note: required for `UserStruct` to implement `Buggy`
Rationale and extra context
I don't know if this should be a bug report instead, but the current workaround of activating the feature in the client crate (B in this exemple) is good enough for me: I just wish I got to it sooner, I passed hours minimizing the error before understanding it was because of a crate boundary, as googling the error linked to self referential constraint error, which is obviously not the case there
Other cases
Rust Version
rustc 1.91.0-nightly (7d82b83ed 2025-08-06)

host: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
release: 1.91.0-nightly

Anything else?
the fact that this workaround exists is also discussed in #141492 I however did not found a bug report for this specific case, please correct me if I am wrong
PS: what is a good practice for bug report when several crates need to be involved for the bug to occur ? I can provide a link to a github with the whole env set up if needed/better
