And something else with selinux.. I think it's bad to ask of users to relabel it or even to ask users tu run commands to prevent certain things to happen. Normal new users (who don't know much of linux yet) might be scared by things like this and might switch from fedora to another os that doesn't bother the user with those messages (ubuntu/windows/mac). So that might be something interesting to investigate..? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
