Developers of packages please pay attention to selinux labeling.

If you are changing the locate of an executable or libraries the
executables write to, please make sure SELinux labels are still
consistant or contact the selinux developers for help.  IF you update a
package in a released version of Fedora and change the locations you
MUST make sure it still works with selinux in enforcing mode.

packagekit got released this to F13 and Rawhide this week and changed
its location. packagekitd should be labeled rpm_exec_t,  Since it moved
it got the default label and is now running unconfined.  This causes
labels to get screwed up and lots of bugs are being reported on it.  It
gives SELinux a bad name.  And it makes our user community mad.  SELinux
has been around a long time.  Packages should be using it at least in
testing.  This is unacceptable.
