Flo, of course it installed.

# which python
/usr/bin/python

# python -V
Python 2.7.14+

=====
It seems Timo is right.
Update python-six to 1.11 and dpkg --configure executed successful.

BUT, I've next error :)

# ipa-client-install ......
There was a problem importing one of the required Python modules. The
error was:

    No module named SSSDConfig

=====
After that I've installed python-sss 1.15 package and further enrollment complete without errors.

Thanks to all for assistance.

Why in debian installing of the ipa client so cumbersome?
