Ubuntu 17.04's freeipa-client has a regression (compared to 16.04 LTS) wrt. joining a FreeIPA kerberos server. I am running a server on 10.111.112.100 with a COCKPIT.LAN domain (from the "ipa-*" image on https://fedorapeople.org/groups/cockpit/images/), and realmd.service fails. Running ipa-client-install manually shows why:

$ sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt -y install freeipa-client realmd sssd-tools packagekit
$ echo 'nameserver 10.111.112.100' | sudo tee -a /etc/resolv.conf

$ sudo ipa-client-install --domain cockpit.lan --realm COCKPIT.LAN --mkhomedir --enable-dns-updates --unattended --force-join --principal admin -W --force-ntpd -w foobarfoo
Discovery was successful!
Client hostname: autopkgtest
Realm: COCKPIT.LAN
DNS Domain: cockpit.lan
IPA Server: f0.cockpit.lan
BaseDN: dc=cockpit,dc=lan

Synchronizing time with KDC...
Attempting to sync time using ntpd. Will timeout after 15 seconds
Attempting to sync time using ntpd. Will timeout after 15 seconds
Unable to sync time with NTP server, assuming the time is in sync. Please check that 123 UDP port is opened.
Please make sure the following ports are opened in the firewall settings:
     TCP: 80, 88, 389
     UDP: 88 (at least one of TCP/UDP ports 88 has to be open)
Also note that following ports are necessary for ipa-client working properly after enrollment:
     TCP: 464
     UDP: 464, 123 (if NTP enabled)
Kerberos authentication failed: kinit: Included profile directory could not be read while initializing Kerberos 5 library

Installation failed. Rolling back changes.
IPA client is not configured on this system.

stracing shows that it tries to access /etc/krb5.conf.d/ which does not exist. mkdir'ing this is sufficient to fix it.

I'm not entirely sure if this is really in freeipa-client or krb5-user (kinit), but running "kinit -f <email address hidden>" directly succeeds.
