 $ dpkg -l | grep rust
 ii  rustc                                            1.28.0+dfsg1-2
                       amd64        Rust systems programming language

 hmmm... i wonder what's going on?

 ah!

 ~/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/rustc -V
rustc 1.24.1 (d3ae9a9e0 2018-02-27)

so the debian version of rustc is not being used, the one there is.
hmm.... how do we upgrade it...

hmmm... still doesn't work...

using rustup (have to apt-get remove rust cargo first)...

dang, have to symlink ln -s
/home/lkcl/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/cargo
 ~/bin/cargo

... aaaand we're there.
