  1. select default tool chain
RUSTUP_HOME=/opt/rustup rustup default stable

  1. It was related root owning the folder but its not the case now.

  2. (optional,used by racer) add rust source

sudo RUSTUP_HOME=/opt/rustup rustup component add rust-src
  1. set up rust-specific env variables
export RUSTUP_HOME=/opt/rustup
export PATH=$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH
export RUST_SRC_PATH="$(rustc --print sysroot)/lib/rustlib/src/rust/src"
  1. add RUSTUP_HOME to Defaults env_keep list in /etc/sudoersto retain this variable for sudo commands (i.e. updating rustup/rust toolchains)
