Rust not having a good standard library is a huge problem. This increases the risk of a rust codebase due to the high number of third party dependencies.

I only said that "I do not mind using libraries typically installed by the Linux distribution's package manager", which was in respect to C.

As far as Rust goes, yes, I do not like that crates are full of one-liners, and so forth. It shares the same problems that npm has. I ran cargo build on many Rust projects before. No way.
