info: looks like you're trying to run this command as root
and so in order to preserve your $HOME this will now
use vendored sources by default.
error: vendoring required, but vendor directory does not exist.
Run `cargo vendor --sync ./src/tools/rust-analyzer/Cargo.toml --sync ./compiler/rustc_codegen_cranelift/Cargo.toml --sync ./src/bootstrap/Cargo.toml ` to initialize the vendor directory.
Alternatively, use the pre-vendored `rustc-src` dist component.

The suggestion to run cargo vendor isn't helpful if you don't already have a Rust toolchain installed. That leaves: "Alternatively, use the pre-vendored rustc-src dist component." It's completely unclear to me what this means or how to do it. Perhaps providing a link to documentation would be useful.
