You're right; I think we need some better procedure for people to ask
for help -- and we need to _encourage_ them to ask for help.

For the specific case of SElinux problems, what I'd probably do myself
would be file a bug against my package and then assign (or at least Cc)
it to dwalsh. I wouldn't just ask on the fedora-devel mailing list -- is
that what you did?

I appreciate that my approach might not scale though, and he might not
thank me if I advocate it as a general solution :)

It would be very good to have a document addressing the things a package
maintainer might need to know when packaging software. It might already
exist.
