IIRC there was (at one time) a check box in system-config-security to force

the rpm changelog to see why it was dropped ... I did not find an entry for

I don't know about this, but you can force an autorelabel by running:

- Remove support for modifying tunables since policy source will be
disappearing in the future (#160896).
I have browsed/searched the various selinux mailing lists and not found
anything which discussed this. Can someone expand one what is going on and
how policy changes will be made in the future?
I'm not aware of plans to remove the policy sources. You shouldn't need
them to use selinux, however. Tunables are for making compile-time
changes to policy, while booleans are for making runtime changes to
policy. I suspect what happened here is that tunable support got
dropped, but booleans will be kept. Tunables are things the package
distributor might want to control, while booleans are for changes by the
end user.
Is this similar to the kernel source situation where we will need to install
the src rpm for selinux-policy to get at the sources?
Sources are already in a separate package, and I think they would be
required if you wanted to modify tunables - not the case for booleans.
