is already defined here doesn't point to the proper place:

I believe it is pointing at the correct place (the use libc; is redundant and should be removed). What I think is missing is an explanation of why the redundancy exists (it is because libc already exists in the extern prelude).

Normally you see something like:

   Compiling playground v0.0.1 (/playground)
warning: the item `TryFrom` is imported redundantly
   --> src/main.rs:3:5
    |
3   | use std::convert::TryFrom;//~ WARNING the item `TryFrom` is imported redundantly
    |     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

   ::: /playground/.rustup/toolchains/nightly-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/rustlib/src/rust/library/std/src/prelude/mod.rs:129:13
    |

    |             ------------------------ the item `TryFrom` is already defined here
    |
note: the lint level is defined here
   --> src/main.rs:1:9

Here it says where is already defined here is, correctly.

#![warn(unused_imports)]

use std::convert::TryFrom;//~ WARNING the item `TryFrom` is imported redundantly
use std::convert::TryInto;//~ WARNING the item `TryInto` is imported redundantly

fn main() {
    let _e: Result<i32, _> = 8u8.try_into();
    let _f: Result<i32, _> = i32::try_from(8u8);
}

Yes, exactly! We just need to adjust the contents of the label in this situation.
