Issue

The backup / restore operation does not restore the file /etc/pkcs11/modules/softhsm2.module.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. install ipa server, the file /etc/pkcs11/modules/softhsm2.module gets created in order to disable global p11-kit configuration for NSS
  2. perform a full backup with ipa-backup
  3. uninstall the server with ipa-server-install --uninstall -U
  4. restore with ipa-backup /path/to/backup
  5. The file /etc/pkcs11/modules/softhsm2.module hasn't been updated (if it did not exist prior to ipa-backup, it's not created, and if there was a file with different content, the content is not overwritten).

Actual behavior

ipa-backup does not backup the content of /etc/pkcs11/modules/softhsm2.module
ipa-restore does not restore the content of /etc/pkcs11/modules/softhsm2.module

Expected behavior

ipa-backup should backup the file, and ipa-restore should restore the file.

Version/Release/Distribution

master branch from 2019 Sep 19

As the file was introduced in ipa 4.8 release with commit 74e0908 + backported to ipa-4-7 with ae5831b, the fix is needed on master, ipa-4-8 and ipa-4-7 branches only.
