https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1051044 --- Comment #3 from Edgar Hoch <edgar.hoch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- I found the difference in semanage syntax by comparing the manpages fon F19 and F20 (when looking for the reason why my scripts has failed): F19: man semanage -f, --ftype File Type. This is used with fcontext. Requires a file type as shown in the mode field by ls, e.g. use -d to match only directories or -- to match only regular files. F20: man semanage-fcontext -f [{a,f,d,c,b,s,l,p}], --ftype [{a,f,d,c,b,s,l,p}] File Type. This is used with fcontext. Requires a file type as shown in the mode field by ls, e.g. use 'd' to match only directories or 'f' to match only regular files. The following file type options can be passed: f (regular file),d (directory),c (character device), b (block device),s (socket),l (symbolic link),p (named pipe). If you do not specify a file type, the file type will default to "all files". I think, the documentation in F20 is sufficient, because it describes how to call the command semanage fcontext. My problem was that this is an incompable change in the syntax and that users - or at least administrators - should be notified that they have to check there scripts before they move from F19 to F20. The right place would have been the release notes (or special release notes for administrators). If the command options isn't described in the security guide until now then it need not be described only because of this change of the syntax, because the man page describes the command syntax. But of course, the security guide may present examples when and how to use semanage fcontext command. I think there should be a document where additional notes, changes, problems, etc. can be added to the release notes after release of a fedora version. Think of the page "Common F20 bugs": it is in the fedora wiki, and it is updated when there are available new "common" bugs, changes to bugs, etc.. I think fedora need something similar for release notes updates. What do you think of wiki pages for each released release notes to inform the users and administrators about additional information, changes, etc., that hasn't found the way into the release notes before release date? For example, a wiki page "Release Notes Updates for Fedora 20"? I know that this has nothing to do with security guide, but I think Fedora is missing such a release notes updates document, and the problem described in this bug report is an example that should put into such a document. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
