+Found possibly newer version of crate `..` which `..` depends on.
+
+Consider these erroneous files:
+
+`a1.rs`
+```ignore (needs-linkage-with-other-tests)
+#![crate_name = "a"]
+
+pub fn foo<T>() {}
+```
+
+`a2.rs`
+```ignore (needs-linkage-with-other-tests)
+#![crate_name = "a"]
+
+pub fn foo<T>() {
+    println!("foo<T>()");
+}
+```
+
+`b.rs`
+```ignore (needs-linkage-with-other-tests)
+#![crate_name = "b"]
+
+extern crate a; // linked with `a1.rs`
+
+pub fn foo() {
+    a::foo::<isize>();
+}
+```
+
+`main.rs`
+```ignore (needs-linkage-with-other-tests)
+extern crate a; // linked with `a2.rs`
+extern crate b; // error: found possibly newer version of crate `a` which `b`
+                //        depends on
+
+fn main() {}
+```
+
+The dependency graph of this program can be represented as follows:
+```text
+    crate `main`
+         |
+         +-------------+
+         |             |
+         |             v
+depends: |         crate `b`
+ `a` v1  |             |
+         |             | depends:
+         |             |  `a` v2
+         v             |
+      crate `a` <------+
+```
+
+Crate `main` depends on crate `a` (version 1) and crate `b` which in turn
+depends on crate `a` (version 2); this discrepancy in versions cannot be
+reconciled. This difference in versions typically occurs when one crate is
+compiled and linked, then updated and linked to another crate. The crate
+"version" is a SVH (Strict Version Hash) of the crate in an
+implementation-specific way. Note that this error can *only* occur when
+directly compiling and linking with `rustc`; [Cargo] automatically resolves
+dependencies, without using the compiler's own dependency management that
+causes this issue.
+
+This error can be fixed by:
+* Using [Cargo], the Rust package manager, automatically fixing this issue.
+* Recompiling crate `a` so that both crate `b` and `main` have a uniform
+version to depend on.
