SELinux should be disablable is the wrong discussion. The discussion you should be having is "I've filed a few bugs where SELinux didn't magically do the right thing, how do we fix them and can we make these less likely to occur in future" If it was a car this discussion ie - "I had a brake problem so I disabled them" would not be considered sane Alan -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
