Description Tomasz Torcz 2013-12-12 18:21:31 UTC

Description of problem:
When trying to join FreeIPA domain during initial setup, I get this totally unhelpful message:

"Failed to join domain 
Not authorized to perform this action"

However, if I run "realm -v join pipebreaker.pl" from command line, I get much better message: Couldn't join realm, the following packages are not available for installation: ipa-client, sssd"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
7 beta

Expected results:
The message on GUI should be as helpful as in CLI. Even better, gnome-initial-setup should use PackageKit to install required packages.
