[SOLVED] Error with installing "rand 0.8.3" through cargo

Issue

I'm having an issue where Cargo refuses to build rand 0.8.3, I get this error message about a misplaced ":"

I'm very new to rust and cargo so this may be a very simple question and it's based off following the rust language tutorial listed on the official rust website

What have I done wrong?

I'm on Fedora 36 in case it helps

Does $LD_LIBRARY_PATH have an unterminated quote character?

Caused by:
  failed to join path array: ["/home/my_name/Documents/Rust/Rust Learning/2: Programming a Guessing Game/target/debug/deps", "/home/my_name/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib", "/home/ru/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib"]

Caused by:
  path segment contains separator `:`

Solution

May have something to do with the colon in the path: https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/3736
