bug#52107: rust-analyzer shipped broken without rust-src |

Hello Guix,
The rust-analyzer package depends on having a local copy of the rust compiler
(rustc) source code available in order for it to function.
Currently, neither the rust-analyzer nor the rust package include rust-src,
which means rust-analyzer is broken by default.
On non-guix systems the rustc source code is usually installed using `rustup
component add rust-src`.
The workaround I'm currently using is to run `guix build --source rust`
followed by adding `export
RUST_SRC_PATH=/home/$user/rustc-$version-src/library` to ~/.profile following
every rust upgrade.
rust-analyzer is a crucial tool for many rust developers, so this experience
should definitely be improved or at least documented.
I am not very familiar with guix and therefore cannot recommend a good way to
solve this.
What would possible solutions to this issue be?
Kind regards,
Nicholas
