The BIND LDAP plug-in was not found on this system Please install the 'bind-dyndb-ldap' package and start the installation again Aborting installation [root@ipaserver1 ~]# Expected results: Additional info: seem to be in IPA trac: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/140 tried to look into bz if already reported, not in bz 502744 - Update "Installing the IPA Server" section to account for BIND bz 504387 - bind-dyndb-ldap missing dependencies on rhel 5 does it need to be in BZ ? workaround: yum install bind-dyndb-ldap and then hit a pkisilent issue.
DNS is an optional component so we do not require its packages be installed. We determine at runtime whether the packages exist and warn accordingly.
pki is optional too, but pki-ca seem to be added as a dependency. It is kind of annoying to see ipa-server-install aborting on an optional feature, Can we add a note into the doc? Like may be in: http://obriend.fedorapeople.org/freeIPA2.0/Identity_and_Policy_Management_Guide/html-single/#sect-Enterprise_Identity_Management_Guide-Preparing_for_an_IPA_Installation-DNS 5.6. DNS ? (the pkisilent issue i had was with bz 671058 - ipa2 - ipa-server-install fails on pkisilent - xml parsing string -- ?)
pki is optional but enabled by default dns is optional and disabled by default
