rust16 installs a limited set of rust binaries to /opt/rust16. This is to allow rust-based SlackBuilds to build more recent versions than would be possible with system rust. To use the rust16 binaries in a SlackBuild, make the following export statements: export PATH="/opt/rust16/bin:$PATH" if [ -z "$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ]; then export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/rust16/lib$LIBDIRSUFFIX" else export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/rust16/lib$LIBDIRSUFFIX:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" fi If your SlackBuild experiences build failures on 64-bit systems, please ensure that the LIBDIRSUFFIX variable is set. rust16 is not intended as a substitute for rustup or for the Slackware rust package in terms of rust development purposes. Separate downloads are available for i686 and x86_64. -current users may be able to ignore rust16 as a dependency for some packages.
