When trying to install Rust through rustup, with the Rust packages installed through apt present, the following message is shown:
info: downloading installer
warning: it looks like you have an existing installation of Rust at:
warning: /usr/bin
warning: It is recommended that rustup be the primary Rust installation.
warning: Otherwise you may have confusion unless you are careful with your PATH
warning: If you are sure that you want both rustup and your already installed Rust
warning: then please reply y' oryes' or set RUSTUP_INIT_SKIP_PATH_CHECK to yes
warning: or pass `-y' to ignore all ignorable checks.
error: cannot install while Rust is installed
Continue? (y/N)
So it is better to remove the ones installed through apt before installing the ones through rustup.
