 The same bug is just being announced in FC4, so I suspect it
is related.

 After a bunch of thumping around, one way or another,
an openly *stupid* addition got it working again...

 in unconfined.te add:
  allow unconfined_t usr_t:file execmod;

 So, as long as you don't mind leaving your armors backdoor
open, you can get this stuff working again.

 As far as acrobat, YMMV, but it worked for Realplayer.

 But, *my* it feels breezy in here...    :P

  I suspect a better fix than this is coming, as they repair the
selinux targeted updates they just released. Caveat Emptor.

I'm running FC3, targeted policy:

selinux-doc-1.14.1-1
selinux-policy-targeted-1.17.30-3.2

Could some kind soul clue me into the right incantation to get this
working again? Thanks.
Ok, these files are shared libraries, so I imagine the context should be:

system_u:object_r:shlib_t rather than system_u:object_r:usr_t.

Should I be making changes to:

/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts

and adding entries for these files and then rerun setfiles?

Ok, adding explicit security context entries for acrobat worked. See the
attachment for the entries I added to:

/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts

which solved the problem. The following question remains: Are the steps I
took correct for resolving the problem? Thanks.
