Yeah, Red Hat has spent quite some time now filing the rough edges off SELinux :-(. I've found that Fedora 8 seems to have it mostly right, though --- I don't recall hitting any SELinux problems, while back in the bad old days of FC5 and FC6 I too kept it turned off. If that was when you got your bad impression of it, give it another chance. But it still seems to be possible to have file permissions messed up after installing packages, hence my suggestion to try a relabel. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
