Description Jan Cholasta 2015-09-22 14:20:20 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/5314

Currently, the kdcproxy user is created in the spec file in the %pre scriptlet of freeipa-server. It does not have a static UID andGID assigned, which violates Fedora and RHEL packaging guidelines.

Fix this by creating the user from ipa-server-install, which is consistent with how DS and CA users are created.
