warning: unexpected cfg condition name: has_error_description_deprecated #203

Hello,

Today installed electrs on another machine on my LAN, followed the same install process as before but this time encountered this error.

I did an earlier install on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS a week or so ago, todays install was on a different PC running Lubuntu 24.04.4 LTS and got the warning below.

This didn't happen on my other machine when I installed as far as I can see the same thing a week or so back, so IDK why it happened this time.

Anyway, the error message has some advice for dev's as to how to prevent it, so thought I should pass that on.

Details below.

Thanks,
Glen.

Did the standard install of clang/cmake/rustup and all good.

So then tried to compile/run electrs:
$ git clone https://github.com/blockstream/electrs && cd electrs
$ git checkout new-index
Already on 'new-index'
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/new-index'.

$ cargo run --release --bin electrs -- -vvv --lightmode --timestamp ... etc etc
