Comment:
Unless we mark the rust toolchain packages as "for package building only", there will be people using the rust toolchain bits we ship instead of whatever they'd otherwise download through rustup.

The current setup allows all the toolchain to be installed through xbps without rustup involvement, no mix needed. People using packaged rust with rustup-downloaded r-a won't even get the same version unless they specifically ensure they keep the packaged rust and rustup r-a in version sync.

I don't personally use packaged rust outside of when packaging other things, and I'm not sure using packaged rust is good for development purposes, but such is the current state of what we ship.
