Hi all,

I recently discovered Rust and would love to explore it a bit, but I have
trouble installing a current version. Following
<http://dl.rust-lang.org/doc/tutorial.html#installation>, I tried
        wget http://dl.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-0.3.tar.gz
but that gives ERROR 403: Forbidden.

On the other hand, <http://www.rust-lang.org/>, refers to v0.2 from Mar 29
as the latest version. I installed that version successfully, but it seems
to be pretty outdated compared to the API reference on the website. For
args: [str], args.len() works, but if I try args.tail() or args.head(), I get
        error: attempted access of field tail on type [str], but no public 
field or
method with that name was found

Could anyone kindly explain how to actually install a sufficiently current
version of Rust on Linux (Debian testing, in my case)?

Thanks in advance
        Christian

For we each of us deserve everything, every luxury that was ever piled in
the tombs of the dead kings, and we each of us deserve nothing, not a
mouthful of bread in hunger. Have we not eaten while another starved? Will
you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving
while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your
mind of the idea of *deserving*, the idea of *earning*, and you will begin
to be able to think.
