Hi! Just checked the contents of the website, and the correct URLs are:

https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-src-{channel}.tar.gz
https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-src-{channel}.tar.xz

Channel can be beta, nightly or a version number. Seems like stable isn't there though, I'll have to investigate a bit more on why it's missing.

Ok no we never produced rust-src-stable.tar.gzs.

There are two different source packages

rustc-{channel}-src.tar.* is the complete source distribution for building the toolchain.
rust-src-{channel}.tar.* provides the rust-src component for rustup. This just includes what's needed to build std, for use by rls, xargo, etc.

I am using stable, the nightly version i has been added due to racer and I can't download the stable src for the RUST_SRC_PATH environment variable.
