Package: fai-server
Version: 5.10
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm a new user of FAI.  I've run a few test setups on VMs and am in the
process of doing the first install on a production server, prepping to build
real installs.

This didn't crop up on single-interface VMs, but in production I've run into a
problem with priming of the /etc/exports file, triggered by the presence of
multiple interface and IP protocols on the server.  At the end of the run of
`fai-setup -v`, the nfs-server fails to load, and it appears the cause is that
it is either failing to strip newlines when it obtains the server IP
addresses, or is erroneously inserting newlines, when it constructs the
exports entries.

For example (indenting added by me, newlines added by fai-setup):

   /srv/fai/config 127.0.0.1/8
   
   
   
   172.16.2.2/30
   
   64.191.0.64/24
   192.168.1.64/24
   192.168.0.64/24
   fe80::fc54:ff:fe78:7dd0/64
   fe80::fc54:ff:fe48:106e/64
   fe80::fc54:ff:fece:417f/64(async,ro,no_subtree_check)

This causes nfs-server.service to fail to start.

Correcting this is an easy problem to solve (remove the newlines) but a newbie
to NFS might take a while to figure that out.
