However, if I cargo binstall erdtree --force:

$ cargo binstall --force erdtree
17:49:41 [INFO] Resolving package: 'erdtree'

? yes
17:55:02 [INFO] Installing binaries...

So maybe we could see if cargo binstall could use the alternative QuickInstall method in order to resolve URLs that aren't found.

I cleared the cargo cache and it works now, strange.
