keybase-installer and strict umask #673

I have my umask set to 077. Running keybase-installer installs the tools with this umask so only root can use the tools, while running keybase-installer with umask 022 enables the tools for all users on the system.

Perhaps warn about this, or just use umask 022 to install?

I would like to see this solved as well, but it is an Issue of NPM (npm/npm#2078) and they won't fix this as they see it as proper behavior (in contrast to dpkg, which is inconsequent imho)
But maybe it could be possible to wrap this at least in keybase update since it could set another umask before running npm install?
