the trait `std::error::Error` is not implemented for `getrandom::error::Error`

Why error being a normal error is platform-dependent?

Because getrandom is a no_std crate by default. std::error::Error implementation is feature-gated behind std feature, so you just need to enable it.

Why it gets auto-enabled on Linux?

Because it was an oversight which we have to keep for backward compatibility, but we plan to remove it in v0.2 (see #98).

Closing this as this was fixed in 0.2 for #106. General 0.2 progress is tracked in #98
