The problem was that with cosmic the repositories were not available on http://archive.ubuntu.com.
changing them in /etc/apt/sources.list i.e replacing all occurences of http://archive.ubuntu.com with http://old-releases.ubuntu.com did the trick.
I am using IntelliJ's rust plugin (version 0.2.0.2114-182) with IDEA (2018.2.3).
There is a yellow bar at the top of my editor window that says "cannot attach stdlib sources automatically without rustup". This is not surprising since gentoo does not use rustup. It compiles rust from source.
There is an option to "attach manually", but I have no idea what directory it wants me to pick; or even what I should look for to figure out what the proper directory is; and I'm not even sure the gentoo ebuild created a directory with the necessary stdlib sources.
How can I provide the stdlib sources to the rust plugin in a way that is compatible with gentoo's package management system? It seems like answers to How to provide standard library sources for IntelliJ IDEA's Rust project? bypass gentoo's ebuilds and might cause the accumulation of cruft over time.
The dev-lang/rust Gentoo package has an rls use-flag (standing for Rust Language Server), which has a side-effect of installing Rust sources to /usr/lib/rustlib/src:
$ equery files dev-lang/rust | grep lib.rs
/usr/lib/rustlib/src/rust/src/libcore/lib.rs
/usr/lib/rustlib/src/rust/src/libstd/lib.rs
(...)
The solution is therefore to enable the rls use-flag and then point Intellij IDEA to /usr/lib/rustlib/src/rust/src:
I believe this is a more idiomatic solution on Gentoo than to bypass portage and/or use rustup.
Note that dev-lang/rust-bin package currently does not have the rls use-flag and I haven't found a way to install Rust lib sources with it.
Contributions regarding dev-lang/rust use-flags (and their docs) in Gentoo would be probably appreciated.
I have an experimental technique that has different warts from the solution Sven found:
I installed rustup in addition to having the gentoo-managed rust ebuild.

Rust is installed now. Great!
To get started you need Cargo's bin directory ($HOME/.cargo/bin) in your PATH
environment variable. Next time you log in this will be done automatically.
To configure your current shell run source $HOME/.cargo/env
After that you might want to rig rustup to use the same version the ebuild installed (or maybe you want to leave it tracking the latest stable, your choice)
$ equery list rust
* Searching for rust ...
[IP-] [ ] dev-lang/rust-1.34.2:stable/1.34
$ rustup default 1.34.2
info: using existing install for '1.34.2-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu'

1.34.2-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu unchanged - rustc 1.34.2 (6c2484dc3 2019-05-13)
But you definitely want the rust-src component
$ rustup component add rust-src
info: downloading component 'rust-src'
info: installing component 'rust-src'
After that, the rust stdlib sources should be in $HOME/.rustup/toolchains/$VERSION-$ARCH/lib/rustlib/src/rust/src and you should be able to enter that path into the settings for the rust plugin.
You may also use that settings dialog to choose your toolchain (/usr/bin, $HOME/.cargo/bin, or $HOME/.rustup/toolchains/$VERSION-$ARCH/bin; I'm just guessing that .cargo/bin points to whatever rustup default you have set at the moment).
The drawback to this solution is that you now have 2 (or more) installations of rust. The system ebuild, plus any versions you have installed into $HOME/.cargo and $HOME/.rustup using rustup. There may be more problems, considering that I've only been using this for an hour or so.
Had the same problem. The solution I settled for is to use rustup and remove portage's rust from my system. You can then tell portage to assume rust is provided by using /etc/portage/package.provided to make emerges like firefox work with rustup's version.
Here is a short article describing the process: https://laumann.xyz/gentoo/2018/05/01/gentoo-package-provided.html
Iirc you don't need everything he puts in bash.profile at the end, but right now I can't tell you what exactly you can leave out
The paths mentioned by the other posts are correct:
"/usr/bin" for the "toolchain location".
"/usr/lib/rustlib/src/rust/library" for the "standard library".
After having set them the plugin was able to work correctly but the "autocomplete" for methods/functions that belong to Rust's standard library was still not working (same problem on all my 3 Gentoo notebooks, reproduced with CLion 2021.2 & 2021.3 + Rust plugin 0.4.164 and some other older versions + Rust 1.58.1 & 1.56.1).
For example, when typing "String::" I didn't get the list that shows its functions/methods (e.g. "from()", "as_bytes()", etc...).
To be exact, I that functionality was working the very first time that I set the correct paths, but not anymore after an explicit restart of CLion (it took me a while to realize this, made me crazy).
The root cause of the problem seems to be that the rust-plugin wants to be able to write to the stdlib-directories (I didn't analyze what it writes nor I'm going to speculate).
Example of an error message:
error: failed to write /opt/rust-bin-1.58.1/lib/rustlib/src/rust/library/unwind/Cargo.lock
Until CLion changes this behaviour the workaround would obviously be to make the location of Rust's standard library writeable by the user which is running CLion.
Doing that directly would of course trigger a lot of problems (security + pkg management), thererfore I decided to look for alternatives.
I decided to use OverlayFS to be able to still use Gentoo's original installation of Rust and at the same time to reroute the changes written by CLion to a separate directory.
In my case the details are:
1-
Created the 3 custom dirs needed by OverlayFS:
mkdir /opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_upperdir
mkdir /opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_workdir
mkdir /mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result
2- Did an initial manual "mount":
mount -v -t overlay overlay -o noatime,lowerdir=/usr/lib/rustlib,upperdir=/opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_upperdir,workdir=/opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_workdir /mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result
(the contents of "/usr/lib/rustlib" get on top the additional layer "/opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_upperdir" to which all changes will be written - I don't know what "workdir" is supposed to host but it's a required parameter - and the merged layers are made available in " /mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result":)
3- Changed in the overlay the ownership of all files:
cd /mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result
chown -R MY_NON_ROOT_USER /mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result/*
4- Made CLion's Rust plugin use the new overlayed dir:
"/usr/bin" for the "toolchain location" (same as before).
"/mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result/src/rust/library" for the "standard library" (new!).
5- Restarted CLion and checked that everything worked
6- Made the overlayfs permanent in "/etc/fstab":
overlay /mnt/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay-result overlay noatime,lowerdir=/usr/lib/rustlib,upperdir=/opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_upperdir,workdir=/opt/stecustom/clion/clion-rust_stdlib-overlay_workdir 0 2
7- Rebooted and checked again in CLion.

hi im not sure what im doing and
basically i tried to get ghc and haskell-platform on to my mac via homebrew
however for reasons that i don't understand, ghc doesn't work hence neither does haskell-platform
according to brew doctor:
Warning: Unbrewed .pc files were found in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig.
If you didn't put them there on purpose they could cause problems when
building Homebrew formulae, and may need to be deleted.

but according to someone this can be ignore???
also i cannot seem to find the file to delete it (if i should delete it)

configure: error: Your installation of ghc does not appear to work.
It cannot compile a simple program (see config.log for the details).
If you installed ghc from a generic binary tarball then it is worth
checking that you have the 'gmp' C library and header files installed.
(On Debian-based systems this package is called libgmp3-dev.)
READ THIS: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/troubleshooting
These open issues may also help:
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/20956
i don't know how to check for the gmp c library and header files
and the link they recommended is completely over my head too; something about hscolor missing.
Does this mean i have other things i should have installed prior to installing ghc??? (i have nothing else installed via homebrew other than ghc and haskell-platform)
if so, what should i have installed??

Try installing them simultaneously:
sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb
This might be working in some cases, but I recently ran into the same issue in Linux Mint 13. the suggested commands (sudo dpkg -i ./.deb) will temporarily install such packages, however they will still be registered as "broken" (i.e. you are barred from using or even modifying your packages until these conflicts are resolved). The only way to resolve these is through a package manager. No other way is possible currently.
Funny thing, I discovered these nonsense dependencies when trying to replace the ethernet adapter's faulty driver with a working one. Turns out that most Linux distributions do not come with development tools (so you cannot just "make install" in an offline mode). But because there is no way to install packages offline due to sloppy developer policies [circular dependencies, self-dependencies, dpkg not working in these cases], some Linux version may come out as permanently broken on certain platforms (if internet connection does not work).
Suggestions? I would suggest spamming the developer forums to request strict dependency policies from programmers: no module should EVER be released to the public BEFORE an automatic dependency check has been run on it (to avoid self-dependencies, which is pretty lame). In case of circular dependencies (i.e. a depends on b, b depends on c, c depends on a), modules should be required be merged to a single one prior to release. Does not matter how big that file will become. There is nothing worse than a system which appears to be modular, but in fact the modules are making more problems than they ever solve. A non-modular "block" policy should be a MUST in this case.
The world out there is complicated... Only people make it even more complicated...
