      During RHEL 10.0 to RHEL 10.1 upgrade I noticed error claiming inability to
      create /home/pkiuser directory.

      This is probably caused by pre-install script from the idm-pki-server
      package which tries to create it. I also noticed that pkiuser
      home directory is /home/pkiuser in /etc/passwd. This is different
      compared to what I've seen in RHEL 9.x systems, where pkiuser home
      was /usr/share/pki.

      The problem is caused by a fact that /home is managed by autofs on
      my systems.

      Why is system user account using place designated for human users,
      which in any network would be a shared directory from the NFS server?

      This is the package version after the upgrade:

      idm-pki-server-11.7.0-2.el10.noarch
