It looks like it happen with each upgrade of selinux-policy.
I assume it might be some missing quoting in rpm bash scriptlet.

It should not be difficult to reproduce and file a bug.
Feel free to add to CC my mail.



Lukas,

I've just seen this again. When you said "file a bug" did you mean against ipa or against selinux?

(I've just seen it again)

"The antidote to apocalypticism is apocalyptic civics. Apocalyptic civics is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is together. "
