Issue with installing rusti (Rust interactive shell)

I am trying to install Rusti (the Rust programming language interactive shell) from https://github.com/murarth/rusti

But after this command, (as suggested in the GitHub page)

rustup run nightly-2016-08-01 cargo install --git https://github.com/murarth/rusti

I get this message

error: aborting due to previous error error: failed to compile rusti v0.0.1 (https://github.com/murarth/rusti#9a1eff33), intermediate artifacts can be found at /tmp/cargo-install.DeH3oix9x8l3

Caused by: Could not compile rusti.

Any help would be appreciated, I am on Ubuntu 16.04.
