In the latest selinux-policy package, I could find an empty directory

What is the purpose? Is it intended to store policy packages installed
by other RPMs (such as mod_selinux)?

Thanks,
Yes the idea was to provide a location for third parties to put their PP
files.

Hmm... Now, I provide two types of policy packages (targeted and mls).
Do you have any guideline to deploy these files?

For example, the mod_selinux installs its policy modules at:
  /usr/share/selinux/targeted/mod_selinux.pp
    and
  /usr/share/selinux/mls/mod_selinux.pp

If we put them on a single directory, it conflicts due to the name.

I think /usr/share/selinux/packages is a hangover from when packaging modules in RPMs was first being considered. The draft guidelines (which are old but still relevant) suggest that mod_selinux is doing the right thing.
