Somewhat related, our current build_rust test doesn't work because
I used rustup, and it works by adding stuff (paths mostly?) to bashrc.
Which does not get evaluated when we launch the script from a systemd
unit :( I couldn't find a "please run this as an interactive shell"
switch in bash, should we source ~/.bashrc in build_rust.sh for now?
