python3 x.py install attempts to install some files multiple times and leaves ".old" files

[xry111]

In a fresh install of 1.72.0 there are some .old files:

/opt/rustc-1.72.0/share/doc/rustc-1.72.0/README.md.old
/opt/rustc-1.72.0/share/doc/rustc-1.72.0/LICENSE-MIT.old
/opt/rustc-1.72.0/share/doc/rustc-1.72.0/LICENSE-APACHE.old
/opt/rustc-1.72.0/bin/cargo-fmt.old
/opt/rustc-1.72.0/bin/cargo-clippy.old
/opt/rustc-1.72.0/bin/rustfmt.old
/opt/rustc-1.72.0/bin/clippy-driver.old
/etc/bash_completion.d/cargo.old

The same thing happens with 1.71.1.

Performed a test on 1.72.0 and was able to reproduce the problem. With HEAD: 959b2c7, it is no longer present(most probably fixed on the cargo side since it doesn't have anything to do with bootstrapping).

If you encounter the problem again, please feel free to re-open the issue.

[xry111]

I'm still hitting this with 1.73.0.

[xry111]

Perhaps it's related to my config.toml setting. I'll do more experiments tomorrow and report back...

Still happens with 1.74.0. The terminal output of python3 x.py install (I've removed the Compiling ... lines):

Would be nice if you can share your config.toml. Last time I tried I couldn't reproduce it.

I think I see the same with Rust 1.76:

ls -l rustc-1.76.0/bin/*.old

Are you building multiple targets?

[psumbera]

Are you building multiple targets?

No. I just set following in config.toml: extended = true and tools = ["cargo", "rustfmt"].

[onur-ozkan]

#121079 should handle this problem.
