[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 374 don't make assumptions about cwd

[Rob Crittenden]

Don't assume that cwd exists or is writable. I had worked on this 
previously so that we change to a known writable directory when issuing 
server certs. Enhance that so we change to the NSS db dir when issuing 
the self-signed CA. certutil wants to write a file to the cwd when 
generating a key so we need to be some place writable.

Also handle the case where cwd is an invalid directory. I tested this with:

term 1: mkdir foo
         cd foo

term 2: rmdir foo

term 1: ipa-server-install ...

Probably not a major issue but not hard to more carefully handle it 
either. The installation will still fail but at least we have a good 
message when it does.
