Apologies, yes, Fedora Rawhide. I am a rolling release kind of person.

I suspect that that is the issue causing my problem.

I believe I will just run with SELINUX=permissive from now on so as to
avoid these relatively frequent problems. Human testers seem unneeded
for catching these problems, and I am not convinced SELinux is actually
doing anything useful for individuals running Rawhide. Or maybe I am
missing something…
