Qyriad a3be742bda binary tarball: include cacert in root paths `93cc06334` removed nss-cacert from the binary tarball, but they're necessary for global compatibility (and for our installer). This is what results in cacerts being in the default profile, so e.g. the daemon has TLS certs without having to use the system ones. There's a fallback behavior in the daemon script in case these wind up missing from the profile, but we don't want to have to rely on that, since the fallback fails if it doesn't recognize one of a handful of distros.
