It still doesn't match the only extant documentation. Since the
documentation defines the specs and a bug is a deviation from the specs,
this remains a bug.

Title:
  missing scripts, no documentation

Status in dogtag-pki package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In an extensive search I only found documentation for red hat/fedora
  versions of linux. The documentation by the maintainers of the
  software is also red hat specific. It uses a series of scripts eg
  setup-ds.pl to configure the software that are not installed when the
  ubuntu packages: dogtag-pki and 389-ds-base are installed.

  So several possible cases:

  1) the scripts are not required because the package include their
  actions

  2) the scripts have been accidentally left out of the packages

  3) the scripts are incompatible with ubuntu - directory structure
  possible - and so were left out.

  Bottom line this is the only enterprise quality CA included in the
  repositories that I could find and there is no documentation so no
  easy way to use it. This is not something you want to hack at unless
  you know what you are doing.

  Expecting:

  install the packages, follow the red hat flavour documentation and
  translate into ubuntuese

  outcome:

  documentation impossible to follow after install because of missing
  scripts

  Ubuntu version:

  ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS

  Package:

  dogtag-pki 10.6.0-1ubuntu2
  389-ds-base 1.3.7.10-1ubuntu2
