MacOS Sierra installation issues

Trying to install rust and bumping into problems.

Running

curl -L https ://static.rust-lang.org/rustup.sh | sh

I'm getting this (I placed an empty space after https because I'm not allowed of posting hyperlinks)

ustup: gpg available. signatures will be verified
rustup: downloading manifest for 'stable'
rustup: command failed: curl -s -f -O https ://static.rust-lang.org/dist/channel-rust-stable.toml.sha256
rustup: couldn't download checksum file 'https ://static.rust-lang.org/dist/channel-rust-stable.toml.sha256'

and when running

curl -O https ://static.rust-lang.org/dist/channel-rust-stable.toml.sha256

I'm getting

curl: (35) Server aborted the SSL handshake

I wonder where is the problem (MacOS Sierra 10.12.2). If I download the same file using i.e. Firefox it just works. But not when using Safari.
So, it looks like a problem trusting the certificate or compatibility. Anybody else?

Not sure about fixing your problem directly, but you could try rustup.rs, which is now the official way to install: Install Rust - Rust Programming Language

I second the motion. I used rustup.rs on two different Macs last week (both running up-to-date Sierra) without any problem.
