Problem:
Following the ICICLE Colab instructions, the step:
!apt install rustc cargo
installs Rust 1.75.0 on Google Colab (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS).
However, ICICLE’s dependencies — for example rayon-core v1.13.0 — require Rust ≥ 1.80.0.
Error output:
error: package `rayon-core v1.13.0` cannot be built because it requires rustc 1.80 or newer,
while the currently active rustc version is 1.75.0
Either upgrade to rustc 1.80 or newer...
Steps to reproduce:
Just follow the instructions of "Run ICICLE on Google Colab"
Proposed fix:
Update the Colab instructions to install Rust via rustup instead of apt.
For example:
%%bash
set -euxo pipefail
# Remove distro Rust to avoid confusion (safe if not installed)
apt-get purge -y rustc cargo || true
apt-get update -y
# Install rustup with a minimal, up-to-date toolchain
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs \
| sh -s -- -y --profile minimal --default-toolchain 1.81.0
To persist in later cells, also add:
# Make sure ~/.cargo/bin is on PATH for subsequent `!` shell commands
import os
os.environ["PATH"] = f"/root/.cargo/bin:{os.environ['PATH']}"
This ensures Colab uses the latest stable Rust and avoids the rayon-core compile error.
