Foreman » Installer

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1937024

Description of problem:

Try to install foreman from the /root/ or /root/somedir directory. the important part is that the pulpcore user should not be able to read it. (its unclear if just /root will reproduce the problem or if it has to be /root/somedir)

you will get:

Failed to call refresh: 'pulpcore-manager collectstatic --noinput' returned 1 instead of one of [0]

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Katello 3.18

Steps to Reproduce:
1. as root: mkdir /root/somedir
2. cd /root/somedir
3. run the installer for the first time: foreman-installer

Actual results:

Failed to call refresh: 'pulpcore-manager collectstatic --noinput' returned 1 instead of one of [0]

upon deeper investigation we see:
