ipachangeconf.py is used by both freeipa and sssd (for sssd's) config parser. Currently sssd has a copy of ipachangeconf with its modification. To prevent both files drifting apart and introducing their own bugs, we should put the file into a shared package (python-ipachangeconf or similar) and reuse it in both sssd and freeipa.
Ideally we can move to augeas which would make this unnecessary.
We decided that for now it is acceptable to limp along with duplicated code in the hopes that we can eventually drop it on both sides.
