When using the install wizard downloading the binary will fail if your IP is rate limited towards github API.

curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/morantron/tmux-fingers/releases"
{"message":"API rate limit exceeded for XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.)","documentation_url":"https://docs.github.com/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting"}

So the download URL will be blank failing the download.
