Been saying for years that people need to stop treating the AUR like a repo, when it's more akin to curl installscript.sh | bash.

So, better to use a safe language, and use

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs/ | sh

(I copied that from https://rust-lang.org/tools/install/ just a second ago....)
