There is a hint in the last sentence: ipa-ca-install

The patch fixes ipa-ca-install on replicas. Right now ipa-ca-install
doesn't wait for the local Dogtag to come up but connects to a remote
Dogtag to check if it's up. It uses 8443 or 8080, which might be
blocked. In my test setup I have both ports blocked so ipa-ca-install
never succeeds.
