Yeah, I realized that after I submitted it.

Oh, ipa-dns-install is missing too, I'll fix it.

Yeah, I'll see about pulling some of that into installutils.py. 
install_ca is different depending on context though, I'll have to see 
how complex the conditionals become if I combine them.

Ok, we'll need to check the ipa-replica-install man page too, I based 
this on that.

It means that the blob I ended up with wasn't properly base64-encoded. 
It could mean I missed a header/footer or something else. I'll see if I
