- From a quick read of the Wiki, it looks like there are packages that
fail to build on FC5 hosts due to policy problems (I didn't realize
that). This means to me that we should add a loadable policy
module as
part of the mock package.
Seth, Michael, Dan, et al, what do you guys think?
I think it would be a good idea to package an selinux policy directly in with the mock
package. This would give people a good starting place for tweaking if they have problems,
and encourage them to send their fixes upstream.
Hans policy might be a good starting point if it passes review by somebody who knows more
about selinux than I do.
