Ha, apologies, fzy was a typo for `fd`. Too many installs on the brain. Installs of rust itself aren't succeeding yet for me via Homebrew, with what look like likely simple errors but not ones I investigated yet (though yeah I saw the Rust tracking ticket you linked). But e.g. retrying `brew install rust` this morning produces 404 errors trying to download https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/2020-08-27/rust-std-1.46.0-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.xz.sha256 https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/2020-08-27/rust-std-1.46.0... It looks like https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/65286 https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/65286 may fix things. Haven't spent a ton of time investigating though. Obviously if you have recommendations would love them. Will have a look at your README, thanks for writing it.

  > Installs of rust itself aren't succeeding yet for me via Homebrew Ah, yes. Homebrew builds Rust itself and building Rust uses a previous beta release to build the current development code. Until my recent [pr] bumping the beta bootstrap version, building Rust on aarch64-apple-darwin required specifying a nightly version of Rust because we only had nightly artifacts. I've mentioned that to a homebrew developer, so it should flow through soon. I'd expect that you'd only be able to install the nightly release at first. > if you have recommendations I'm a Rust fanboy, so I'd recommend installing Rust via rustup ;-) [pr]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79219 https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79219

Not OP, but I'm a bit against using cargo (or any other language-specific dependency manager) as a general purpose package manager. It forces me to periodically run updates on many different managers, it doesn't always interface as well with other system / distribution idiosyncrasies as the native package manager, and I don't want to remember or have to care about what tool is written on what language. (Of course, they have their place for specificic use cases, just imo not system-wide installs of random binaries) So I can see why it's a problem if it works with cargo but not with brew.

  > I'm a bit against using cargo Sure and that's fine, but the original comment wasn't clear that they were waiting for homebrew to ship an arm64 version of Rust. The phrasing made it sound like Rust itself was the aspect blocking those tools from working. That's the point I was addressing. > not system-wide installs rustup installs Rust into your home directory by default, and then `cargo install` follows suit, so it's not system-wide.
