These packages only install source code. I quote an explanation below:
"Rust doesn't have a stable ABI. In fact, each version of rustc names
libraries it compiles with a specific hash (first N bytes of md5 hash of
version IIRC) that way it will never try to link to a different version. None
of the non-binary crates are built with the idea of multiple consumers. Do you
want to have 100500 version of the same library and dynamically link them?"
