Can't install toolchains

[alexcrichton]

I installed the 64-bit GNU installer and ran multirust update nightly and was met with:

extracting ...
tar (child): Cannot connect to C: resolve failed

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Child status returned 128
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
error: command 'tar' terminated with exit code: 2

Might I recommend flate2 + tar for extracting tarballs? This is what Cargo uses and it seems to work out pretty well! (also removes a dep on a local tar command).

I assume when you say "64-bit GNU installer", you mean the linux version?
This shouldn't be happening on windows-gnu at all as it uses the .msi installer there.

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll look into using those.

Ah sorry to clarify this was all on Windows, so in other words the x86_64-pc-windows-gnu installer. I guess that's a good question why it was using tar if it was supposed to use the msi...

Perhaps a bug?
