Title:
  kickstart installation ignores %end tags

Status in kickseed package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When installing Ubuntu using Kickstart the Kickstart interpreter does
  not follow the official Kickstart syntax:

  "The %packages, %pre, %pre-install, %post, %onerror, and %traceback sections are all required to be closed with %end"
  https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#creating-the-kickstart-file

  Ubuntu can not handle %end tags. Example:

  [...]
  %packages
  git
  %end

  Results in %end being interpreted as package: "Can not find package
  %end"

  I tested this with Ubuntu 16.04

  Cheers,
  Jan
