How do you know which packages a user has tried to install/update _after_ updating to the bad policy package? It could be any package within the package collection that would remain installed but broken because of the scriptlets bug. You assume that users have only applied the few updates following the bad selinux policy update. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
