Installing rust on Armbian

[g1sbi]

I'm trying to install rust on a Banana Pi M2 Zero, running Armbian 22.11.0. After running the install script, I get an endless loop of this:

info: syncing channel updates for 'stable-armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'
info: latest update on 2023-04-20, rust version 1.69.0 (84c898d65 2023-04-16)

ending in

error: 'rustc' is not installed for the toolchain 'stable-armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'
To install, run `rustup component add rustc`

running the command results in

bananapim2zero:~:% rustup component add rustc
info: syncing channel updates for 'stable-armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'

error: Missing manifest in toolchain 'stable-armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'

is there a way to fix this?

Hey ! I found a solution to this problem in this rustup github thread , if it can help you or any google searcher.

TL;DR:
Try install stable version of your toolchain and it should tell you to f*** off:

~ $ rustup install stable
info: syncing channel updates for 'stable-arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'
info: latest update on 2018-05-29, rust version 1.26.1 (827013a31 2018-05-25)
error: component 'rust-docs' for 'arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf' is unavailable for download

unsintall toolchain:

~ $ rustup uninstall stable

output:

info: uninstalling toolchain 'stable-arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'
info: toolchain 'stable-arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf' uninstalled

Reinstall toolchain:

~ $ rustup install stable

output:

info: syncing channel updates for 'stable-arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'
info: latest update on 2018-05-29, rust version 1.26.1 (827013a31 2018-05-25)

  stable-arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf installed - rustc 1.26.1 (827013a31 2018-05-25)

If you check compiler version it should now works:

~ $ rustc --version

Output:

rustc 1.26.1 (827013a31 2018-05-25)
