installing Adsys package and running realm command does not install all missing packages

[Eric Reiss]

When I run "Realm discover" command it reports what packages are required. I rechecked this with a new install in a VM. The samba-common-bin package is not installed.

I run the "realm join" and the package is still not installed.

The other packages are present prior to the realm join command, I did not show that here for brevity.

A developer indicated while discussing another bug that any required packages not installed should get installed during the "realm join" command.

I will quote what he said here:

"The realm command should be able to automatically figure out and install any required packages, for example if I run realm join to join a domain, the following packages will be automatically installed for me: 'sssd-tools', 'sssd', 'libnss-sss', 'libpam-sss', 'adcli'. So you shouldn't need to install them by hand."

So should not samba-common-bin get installed as well?
