When I tested semanage, the problem occured, how to update the labels with semanage. E.g. when the regex is changed that desribes, which files should be labeled in a certain way. And when one wants to remove the old labels when uninstalling the package. E.g version 1 of the package: %post semanage add RULE1 %postun semanage remove RULE1 As far as I understand rpm, when updating the release of version 1, first semanage add RULE1 from release two runs from %post and then semanage remove RULE1 from release one. This effectivly removes the rule from the /etc/selinux, because identical rules seem not be added more than once to /etc/selinux. When I restrict the %postun only to complete removals of the package, than when one changes the RULES, e.g. in a version 2: %post semanage add RULE2 %postun semanage remove RULE2 then RULE1 will not be removed (it is not the final remove). Then every release has to include "semanage remove RULE1" in "%post" maybe forever. I hope you understand the problem I try to describe, because I did not really use the correct selinux-terms. I would be happy, if I am wrong with this. But if this problem is not solvable with semanage, imho semanage is not a good way to add selinux support to a package.
