Well, when I installed policy-strict-sources, it replaced the files
from the policy-sources package. Surprise! I would have thought in
would have installed them under
/etc/security/selinux/src/policy-strict. I hope we will be able to
have both (or more) policies sources installed at the same time.
If I rename src/policy to src/policy-strict can I then reinstall
policy-sources? what rpm options should I use?
Thanks for the help

Yes that was a mistake that it got out.  I am working on a new version
of the policy src rpm.  It will create 4 rpms.  policy and
policy-sources which will contain the targeted policy (relaxed) policy.
policy-strict and policy-strict-sources which will contain the strict
policy (The policy we currently ship).  This should be available in the
first rawhide versions of FC3.   Policy sources will install in
/etc/security/selinux/targeted/src/policy.  Strict policy sources will
install in /etc/security/selinux/strict/src/policy.




Will there be any way to determine which policy is currently active? Also, I am concerned that the well known location for the policy source (/etc/security/selinux/src/policy/) will go away and break tools that expect it. All of our tools are configurable, of course, but this change will make it hard to provide good configuration defaults. What about making /etc/security/selinux/src/policy a symlink to the currently active policy?

We could change a sym link. We were thinking of using /etc/sysconfig/selinux to specify which policy is in use, and where the directories are. Right now I am just trying to get the SRPM to build both policy groups. The only tools that should be affected are those that deal with the src dir, which is the SEtools.
