Yes, it depends on selinux-package with object classes definition for
SE-PostgreSQL, so it has to be resolved.
Fortunatelly, these new object classes are merged into the upstreamed reference
policy yesterday.
I think it will be integrated within the selinux-policy package soon.

The new version of SE-PostgreSQL contains some modifications of the init
script.

I added a code to create lock file and pid file on startup, and to remove them
on shutdown. rpmlint got a silent.

I uses "/var/lock/subsys/${NAME}.lock" as a pathname of the lock file.
It is same manner with postgresql's one, but rpmlint made warnings.
Should it be replaced by an immediate value?

> xfs (pid 2343) is running...

It displays the following message.
------------------------------------------
[root@masu ~]# service sepostgresql status
sepostgresql: server is running (PID: 11726)
[root@masu ~]# service sepostgresql stop
Stopping sepostgresql service:				   [  OK  ]
[root@masu ~]# service sepostgresql status
sepostgresql: no server running
[root@masu ~]# echo $?
3
[root@masu ~]#
------------------------------------------

In addition, I updated the path of the commands run by /sbin/runuser as
follows:
| cd ${SEPGSQL_BIN}
| /sbin/runuser sepgsql -- -c "./pg_ctl -D ${SEPGSQL_DATA} status"

When /sbin/runuser is run with CWD sepgsql cannot access, typically /root, a
noisy warnning message will be generated.
"cd ${SEPGSQL_BIN}" ensure that sepgsql can be placed on his accesable CWD.
