Due to a regression in henrietta-cache, newer versions would no longer take dotfiles from the extracted archive when moving it over to the cache directory.

This has been fixed, so one must now install henrietta-cache 1.6 alongside henrietta 1.4 for this to work smoothly. It also works with henrietta-cache 1.3 or earlier.
