Trying to install mods crashes the game

This is kind of a sequel to this thread, I guess.

The Steam workshop didn't work at all for me, so I got a refund and bought the standalone game. I thought my troubles were over, but I was wrong.

I can go into add-ons manager, add a new server (ootpmods.com), the list of mods appears, I can download (in this case the 2016_AIO mod), but as soon as I click INSTALL the game crashes. Interestingly enough, if I restart the game and try to install the mod again, I get what looks like the normal success message, except that it "Successfully installed 0 files." If I click Re-Install, the game crashes again.

Looking in my /addons/downloads, I see 2016_AIO.tgz, which looks legit (at least it's the right size), and also an empty file named 2016_AIO.tar.

FWIW I'm on Linux if that makes a difference.

Anyone know where to go from here? This is getting frustrating. I've owned the game for a week and logged 0 hours of play time.
