rustup still fail to install stable rust on ppc64le (even 1.26.1)

# rustup stable install
info: syncing channel updates for 'stable-powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu'
info: latest update on 2018-05-29, rust version 1.26.1 (827013a31 2018-05-25)
error: component 'rust-docs' for 'powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu' is unavailable for download

ppc64be seems to install fine.

rustup stable install is not a valid rustup command (at least on the latest version). What's the exact command you're using?

[lu-zero]

rustup install stable, I copied from ssh the last 3 lines and filled by hand the first one inverting the arguments by mistake.

I tested on powerpc and it works so seems quite specific to the LE target.

Do you have an older version already installed? If so, try removing it and installing it again.

Wiping completely rustup and installing from scratch worked.

Yeah, that's a known issue with rustup (it can install the versions fixed by 1.26.1 but it can't update to them). A rustup patch was merged, and it will be available in the next release.
