bcfg2-server setup

[lueningh]

I'm a brand-new user who doesn't know anything about bcfg2, and I decided to try following the new quickstart guide that Cory hasn't written yet. I installed the packages, ran bcfg2-admin init, started the server, and tried running the client on a host in dryrun mode to see what it would have to say. The client failed, and I got a traceback on the server:

A comment - doing a mkdir /var/lib/bcfg2/Bundler "fixed" this for me.

The first part of this was fixed in [7a7baf22994d8c7e007adbdb6d59ca8eafb38bf3] (SVN r2577).
