The name chosen for an external crate conflicts with another external crate that has been imported into the current module. Erroneous code example: ```compile_fail,E0259 extern crate core; extern crate std as core; fn main() {} ``` The solution is to choose a different name that doesn't conflict with any external crate imported into the current module. Correct example: ``` extern crate core; extern crate std as other_name; fn main() {} ```
