[Bug 1282818] Re: 14.04 freeipa ipa-client-install fails

 

Here's the fix for the final error in
"ipapython/platform/debian/auth.py". After applying this patch, the
whole installation process works like a charm.

Changes:

* Need to import ipautil
* Use continue to remove extra '--package ' args from empty strings
* Need to return args at the end of the function. args was always 'None' before this change
* The correct env var is DEBIAN_FRONTEND, the debian docs were incorrect for a while
* ipautil.run call was incorrect, the second function argument is "stdin", not "env".
