To install Rust on Manjaro Linux, follow these steps:

  1. Update Manjaro: Before installing Rust, ensure your system is up-to-date by running sudo pacman -Syu in the terminal[1].

  2. Install Rust: Use the following command to install Rust on Manjaro Linux: curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh[2].

  3. Activate Rust Environment: After installation, activate the Rust environment for your current shell using source "$HOME/.cargo/env".

  4. Verify Installation: Check if Rust is successfully installed by running rustc -V in the terminal.

  5. Test Rust Installation: Create a test program like "Hello, World!" by creating a file named main.rs, adding fn main() { println!("Hello, World!"); }, and compiling it with rustc main.rs && ./main[1].

  6. Update Rust: Keep your Rust installation up-to-date with rustup update to get the latest features and security patches[2].

  7. Uninstall Rust: If needed, you can remove Rust from your system using rustup self uninstall[1].

By following these steps, you can easily install, test, update, and remove Rust on your Manjaro Linux system.

This script automates the process of updating Manjaro, installing Rust, activating the environment, verifying the installation, testing with a "Hello, World!" program, updating Rust, and optionally uninstalling Rust. Save this script in a file (e.g., rust_install_script.sh), make it executable with chmod +x rust_install_script.sh, and run it in the terminal to automate the installation process.
