Description
This is on a bq Aquarius M10 FHD device. I tried installing with the normal command, which gives me this:
$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
info: downloading installer
sh: 239: /run/user/32011/confined/com.ubuntu.terminal/tmp.DKpGrs2xNJ/rustup-init: not found
rustup: command failed: /run/user/32011/confined/com.ubuntu.terminal/tmp.DKpGrs2xNJ/rustup-init
The rustup-init executable is definitely there, and googling around makes it look like a 64 vs 32 bit issue. Unfortunately (and not unexpectedly), there are no lib32* packages available, which is the recommended solution for fixing the sh: ... not found issue.
This is what uname shows:
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu-phablet 3.10.93+ #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 22 11:01:13 UTC 2016 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Research direction
Start by reproducing the normal rustup command on the bq Aquarius M10 FHD and compare the reported rustup-init path with the device's uname output. Investigate whether the downloaded executable can run on this aarch64 Ubuntu Touch environment. Done means identifying the compatibility cause and establishing whether installation can be supported there.
