[Freeipa-devel] FreeIPA quit working - or, IPA & oVirt

First I'll undo the oVirt/FreeIPA relationship:

  # engine-manage-domains -action=delete -domain=hackunix.org
  ...
  Manage Domains completed successfully

  # service ovirt-engine restart

oVirt works with internal domain and admin user.

Now let's uninstall FreeIPA:

  # pkidestroy -s CA -i pki-tomcat
  Loading deployment configuration from
/var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/ca/registry/ca/deployment.cfg.
  Uninstalling CA from /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat.
  pkidestroy  : WARNING  ....... this 'CA' entry may not be registered with
security domain 'IPA'!
  pkidestroy  : ERROR    ....... updateDomainXML FAILED to delete this 'CA'
entry from security domain 'IPA': ''

  Uninstallation complete.
  # rm -rf /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat
  # rm -rf /etc/sysconfig/pki-tomcat
  # rm -rf /etc/sysconfig/pki/tomcat/pki-tomcat
  # rm -rf /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat
  # rm -rf /etc/pki/pki-tomcat
  # ipa-server-install --uninstall

  This is a NON REVERSIBLE operation and will delete all data and
configuration!

  Are you sure you want to continue with the uninstall procedure? [no]: yes
  Shutting down all IPA services
  Removing IPA client configuration
  Unconfiguring ntpd
  Unconfiguring CA
  ipa         : CRITICAL failed to uninstall CA instance Command
'/usr/sbin/pkidestroy -i pki-tomcat -s CA' returned non-zero exit status 255
  Unconfiguring named
  Unconfiguring web server
  Unconfiguring krb5kdc
  Unconfiguring kadmin
  Unconfiguring directory server
  Unconfiguring ipa_memcached

  # ipa-server-install

I choose BIND integration, set my hostname, and now I get a new error:

  Server host name [localhost.localdomain]: ds1.hackunix.org

  [Errno 1] Unknown host

So now I'm thinking that besides mucking with minssf I also turned on DNS
for my domain, but everything in DNS should match what I started out with
in /etc/hosts... Let me read what the install script is expecting here...
