Description of problem:
I attempted to install via a kickstart that joins a FreeIPA domain at the same time.

Version-Release number of selected component:
anaconda-23.19.7-1

The following was filed automatically by anaconda:
anaconda 23.19.7-1 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):

Comment 14 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2015-10-19 18:28:09 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker for 23-final by Fedora user sgallagh using the blocker tracking app because:

 Alpha Criterion:
"It must be possible to join the system to a FreeIPA or Active Directory domain at install time and post-install, and the system must respect the identity, authentication and access control configuration provided by the domain."
Comment 15 Adam Williamson 2015-10-19 20:12:04 UTC 
This doesn't depend on #1273167. Fixing #1273167 would *hide* (this case of) bug, but this bug can be fixed without #1273167 being fixed.

Transferring blocker nomination to 1273167. The anaconda part of this isn't really a major issue, just anaconda should error gracefully when 'realm discover' fails rather than crashing somewhat cryptically. That's not release blocker stuff.
