Thanks for reporting. This is bad. I could reproduce it on my windows machine. Never had it before that I am able to build the binary but not install it via cargo install. Never thought that there would be a difference...

I will try to resolve this. Interestingly the compiled binaries from the release work on my machine:

Still a bit unclear to me why building the binary did work, but not the installation. But, I found a fix and released version 0.16.1.
