The
pub_use_of_private_extern_cratelint detects a specific situation of re-exporting a privateextern crate:A public
usedeclaration should not be used to publicly re-export a privateextern crate.pub extern crateshould be used instead.This was historically allowed, but is not the intended behavior according to the visibility rules.This used to be tracked as part of #34537, but is only tangentially related so it got a new dedicated tracking issue.
