Why do you call authselect during server update? Shouldn't the system be
already configured?
In FreeIPA server, we want to make sure that authselect profile is
activated, so that this FreeIPA server's PAM stack receives further
updates in case the authselect profile gets some fixes in. If it still
has the manual PAM configuration via old authconfig, it would not
receive such updates. Is that true?

I would think that we want the same as on the FreeIPA server. I.e. if we
detect that FreeIPA client is configured with SSSD, we switch to a
supported authselect PAM stack and thus receive further updates, without
being stuck with manual authconfig PAM stack.
