Description:

When running a kickstart installation with the %certificate section in the kickstart file, the installer show a warning when parsing the kickstart file after fetching it:

The %certificate section in the kickstart file:

%certificate --filename=rtt1.pem --dir=/etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
%end

Description:

Since there is nothing wrong with the kickstart file and I'm not replacing a certificate provided by the distribution (that's already part of the installation media), I do not see a reason to print any warning messages to the user. Could the WARNING message be dropped, logged to journal only or perhaps switched to INFO when replacing a certificate provided by the user himself?

Tested on Rawhide 20250127.n.0 with anaconda-42.23-1.fc42.

Reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run a kickstart file with a %certificate section in the kickstart file. Download the kickstart file from a network location (it is necessary to have at least one network interface active to reproduce the bug).

Actual Results:

The installer shows warning messages about replacing certificate files.

Expected Results:

The warning should be printed only when replacing a file with a certificate provided by the distribution and included on the installation media.
