RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Brian Lane 2022-11-29 17:37:25 UTC 
This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #2121877

I am copying this bug because: 

Anaconda needs to use the new RHEL9_SshKeyData class in order for this to work.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2117734 +++

Description of problem:

I'm unsure if this is still a problem with the current version, and I'm building on Springdale Linux 9, buuut:

In my kickstart file I have:

```
sshkey --username=root "from=\"192.168.1.1\" ssh-rsa ...
```
And in anaconda-ks.cfg, you get:

```
sshkey --username=root "from=192.168.1.1" ssh-rsa 

```

If you notice, the slashes escaping the quotes are missing.


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


How reproducible:

Any build with an sshkey entry that has from="..." in it.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Build a machine with an sshkey that has a "from" entry with quotes.
2.  Quotes aren't properly escaped in resulting ~root/anaconda-ks.cfg
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

Quotes properly escaped.

Additional info:

Sorry if this still isn't a bug, I'm putting this together in a rush.
