Hi.
I have very exciting news. Rust now has binary installers for Linux and Mac,
as well as nightly builds for Windows, Linux and Mac.
Official Rust installers now come in the following forms:
* source .tar.gz - the same old source tarball
* binary .tar.gz - Generic Unix installers, currently built for Linux and
Mac
* win .exe - 32-bit windows installers
* mac .pkg files - Mac installers in the standard .pkg format
With 0.10 coming next week, there's a pretty big risk changing the
installation mechanism now, so please do test Rust installation,
particularly on more exotic systems that need to use `--prefix`, `--libdir`,
etc.
# About the new installation system
We have a new installation script, `install.sh` that is contained in the
binary tarballs and also used for `make install`. `install.sh` takes several
arguments controlling the installation, as well as an `--uninstall` argument
that can be used to uninstall previous versions. This installation script
manages upgrades correctly.
The binary tarballs are also suitable for running rustc in place without
installing.
For convenience I've also published a little script called rustup.sh that
downloads the appropriate nightly and installs:
```
curl -s http://www.rust-lang.org/rustup.sh | sudo sh
```
Uninstall:
```
curl -s http://www.rust-lang.org/rustup.sh | sudo sh -s -- --uninstall
```
I don't plan to recommend this method for general use since people tend to
have security concerns with it, but I expect it to make keeping up with
master much more convenient.

Brian, would it be possible to provide SHA checksums? It's not that
I'm worried about man-in-the-middle attacks, just that it'd be nice to
check that the download isn't corrupt.
It should be fairly easy to automatically upload checksums as well, yes.
I'll look into it over the weekend.
As strcat said, automatic signing is harder, and I don't want to solve
the various problems there yet.
