As time has passed, some of Vello Encoding's dependencies could have released
versions with a higher Rust requirement. If you encounter a compilation issue
due to a dependency and don't want to upgrade your Rust toolchain, then you
could downgrade the dependency.

# Use the problematic dependency's name and version
cargo update -p package_name --precise 0.1.1
```
