You should specify LD_LIBRARY_PATH to lib directory with librustc_driver-d8ace771.so for run rustc directly. Also you can just use make install command with root (!) permissions.

@upyx where is the lib directory,can you give me a example? I can not install it as root.

you can install like this：
sh rustup.sh --prefix=you want install dir
then
you will find a lib directory in the path
add the path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH use export in .bashrc or .zshrc like this:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:you install dir/lib

and add bin path also:
export PATH=$PATH:you install dir/bin/
source ~/.bashrc

try
rustc --version
done

Since this is not exactly a bug, I'm giving it a close. @ggaaooppeenngg , please let us know if you still can't get it to work.
