Public bug reported:

The rust-defaults rust-lld symlink points to
/usr/lib/rust-1.88/bin/rust-lld, but rustc-1.88 actually links lld-20 to
/usr/bin/rust-1.88-lld.

root at test:~# apt install rustc lld-20 -y
[...]
root at test:~# rust-1.88-lld
lld is a generic driver.
Invoke ld.lld (Unix), ld64.lld (macOS), lld-link (Windows), wasm-ld (WebAssembly) instead
root at test:~# rust-lld
Command 'rust-lld' not found, but can be installed with:
apt install rustc
