                SELinux Reference Policy - modular.
            
          
                          :
                Based off of reference policy: Checked out revision
                 2.20091117
            
        
            I downloaded the matching source   selinux-policy-3.11.1-86.fc18.src.rpm 
          
        
        When installing this I noticed patch
          files (but no related documentation)
        
          rpmbuild/SOURCES/policy-f18-base.patch
          rpmbuild/SOURCES/policy_contrib-rawhide-roleattribute.patch
          rpmbuild/SOURCES/policy-f18-contrib.patch
          rpmbuild/SOURCES/policy-rawhide-roleattribute.patch
        
        
        Are these patches just there for
          reference or do they also need to be applied on top of the
          86.fc18.src installation?
        

        Thank You

    Good catch. Basically you just need to use

    
      policy-f18-base.patch

    policy-f18-contrib.patch

    
    patches. I am going to remove patches which are not needed for F18.

    
    Regards,

    Miroslav
