The motd refresher downloads into mktemp, which creates the file 0600 whatever the umask,
then mv's it into /var/cache/profullstack-motd, so every non-root login printed
"cat: /var/cache/profullstack-motd: Permission denied" (seen on a fresh W3BS OS server).
chmod 0644 before the mv, and repair an existing 0600 cache on the next run.
install-root-w3bs-os.sh pins 0.1.1 (tag root-w3bs-os-v0.1.1) and its sha256.
