ipaclient install log
Description of problem:
In a freshly update rawhide i did an ipa-client-install
Very thing go well I even got the "Client uninstall complete."
message but then... Boom! the install failed.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
freeipa-common-4.6.90.pre2-3.fc29.noarch
freeipa-client-common-4.6.90.pre2-3.fc29.noarch
freeipa-client-4.6.90.pre2-3.fc29.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1.ipa-client-install
Additional info:
Attaching the ipaclient-install.log and the screen output

When /etc/krb5.keytab exists prior to ipa client installation, the installer needs to check if the file is a 0-length file. If it is the case, the file needs to be deleted (otherwise ipa-getkeytab fails).
