Cannot download rust src

https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-stable-src.tar.gz

every time I tried to download I get a not found error page

Not Found Error Page

Where did you get this link? If it is somewhere on the official site, this seems to be a bug.

Looks like the broken link is here :

the link is the not found page link when I try to download the source code.
why does the source code need to be downloaded separately, wouldn't it be better if rustup adds it when new version is updated and call it from there when ever something needs to be compiled against the source code.

Why are you downloading the rust source code? Rustup should do this automatically. If it doesn't, you can get away with saying

rustup component add rust-src
