Public bug reported:
In an extensive search I only found documentation for red hat/fedora
versions of linux. The documentation by the maintainers of the software
is also red hat specific. It uses a series of scripts eg setup-ds.pl to
configure the software that are not installed when the ubuntu packages:
dogtag-pki and 389-ds-base are installed.
So several possible cases:
1) the scripts are not required because the package include their
actions
2) the scripts have been accidentally left out of the packages
3) the scripts are incompatible with ubuntu - directory structure
possible - and so were left out.
Bottom line this is the only enterprise quality CA included in the
repositories that I could find and there is no documentation so no easy
way to use it. This is not something you want to hack at unless you know
what you are doing.
Expecting:
install the packages, follow the red hat flavour documentation and
translate into ubuntuese
outcome:
documentation impossible to follow after install because of missing
scripts
Ubuntu version:
ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Package:
dogtag-pki 10.6.0-1ubuntu2
389-ds-base 1.3.7.10-1ubuntu2
