Hi,
umask must be set to 0022, otherwise ordinary users will not be able to
read generated files, eg: /etc/apt/sources.list, if root has a stricter
umask then the default (and adt-setup-vm is called as root).
Regards,
Christian

Subject: adt-setup-vm: set umask to 0022
adt-setup-vm is called as root. If root has a stricter umask, eg: 0027, then
ordinary users within the VM will not be able to read generated files such as
/etc/apt/sources.list. Therefore, ensure it is at 0022.
