The rust install script (https://sh.rustup.rs) when executed fails with the error:

sh: 18: RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT: parameter not set
(23) Failed writing body

I tried it on two different ubuntu setup by executing curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh. When I set the value manually it worked but as far as I understand it this variable should have been set with a default with a default value.

It looks like the script was just updated to fix this.

problem introduced in #1495

The script now contains a potential contradiction if the user has not set a RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT. The set makes use of unbound variables an error, and then there is a check for if the variable is empty. This would be fine if the user had set RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT to an empty value, but breaks if they haven't set it at all. I have to believe that is quite common.
`
set -u

if [ -z "$RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT" ]; then
RUSTUP_UPDATE_ROOT="https://static.rust-lang.org/rustup"
fi

All I'll say is that it was nearing midnight when I tested 1.17.0's installer, and I clearly tested 1.16.0's instead because I'm super-clever like that. Mea culpa.

I'll bankroll the use of a brand-new version number. No stress.

We have a fix live which is fine for now, so unless other issues are spotted with 1.17.0 which we weren't aware of, I figure we'll leave this be. @Delet0r are you okay for this issue to be closed?
