Reopen Issue

Use pexpect python module to control interactive installers and other command-line tools on remote hosts from integration tests. Add a wrapper to simplify usage of pexpect in common scenarios.

Use new approach to run ktutil which currently fails on systems with old version for readline library. Also adapt existing tests which run installers in interactive mode so that they not only send answers but also check that all questions are as expected.
