Description
Problem
Commands like cargo check will report needed features, like the following in clap:
$ cargo run --example git-derive
error: target `git-derive` in package `clap` requires the features: `derive`
Consider enabling them by passing, e.g., `--features="derive"`If you install a specific bin, you get an error telling you how to install it
$ cargo install pulldown-cmark --no-default-features --bin pulldown-cmark
Updating crates.io index
Installing pulldown-cmark v0.9.2
error: failed to compile `pulldown-cmark v0.9.2`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/tmp/cargo-installgpjZMz`
Caused by:
target `pulldown-cmark` in package `pulldown-cmark` requires the features: `getopts`
Consider enabling them by passing, e.g., `--features="getopts"`However, if you do a general install (the more likely case), you get notified nothing is installed but no hint as to what features would change this
$ cargo install pulldown-cmark --no-default-features
