14:49:54 <mcatanzaro> We'll see how it works out... fortunately, errors
are quite rare nowadays.

A rather large part of the reason why errors are rare is that they are
found, reported and fixed by pre-release testers. Removing
setroubleshoot from the default desktop install *at a stroke* makes it
vastly less likely that pre-release testers will do this. I'm not super
happy with this call.

It seems rather baffling, honestly - it almost seems like you voted in
favour of getting worse bug reports. Yes, maybe problems will still be
reported, but you'll get reports against *your* components like "app
doesn't start" or "app can't open file for some reason" rather than a
report against selinux-policy that is a precisely targeted description
of an selinux denial and, 90% of the time, will be *read and fixed by
someone else without you ever having to see it*. Do you all really love
doing triage work, or something?
