rust-uutils isn’t in the AUR or pacman. I found uutils-coreutils and installed it, but cp still does nothing different. What am I missing?
The binaries are installed with a uu- prefix. So you could do uu-cp for example.
That being said, they are targeting identical functionality to the standard GNU tools so you shouldn’t notice anything being different.

Rust-based Coreutils — Installing official repository release and instantiating as replacement - good info here
I still wait for someone brave to do it
