cargo kcov fails to compile project due to undefined references to Rust standard library

[Charles-Johnson]

I had to run cargo kcov --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu to get my project to compile.

Just running cargo kcov lead to this error message:

I had the same issue.
I ran cargo install cargo-kcov to update it from 0.5.1 to 0.5.2, cargo clean then cargo kcov.
Maybe it will work for you too.

Without any feedback since more than 3 years, I think that this issue can be considered as closed.
