You might not be using semanage and semodule from your own tools, but users are using them already in FC5 and packages are beginning to use them as well from scriptlets in order to install per-package policy or apply other package-specific customizations. Hence, switching to using seedit will break such usage. It shouldn't be difficult for you to just build your simplified policy as a base policy module using checkmodule and install it via semodule, in the same manner as the stock FC5 selinux-policy package. Then users and packages can continue using semodule and semanage. -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
