Solved the compile issues, I symlinked the libs in /lib to /usr/lib - but should I actually have them in /usr/lib instead? (I followed Tim Wood's scripts which used /lib). The buildscripts for slackware at http://www.firstinternetservices.com/selinux are complete & working for the base selinux packages for the new version (I'm working on userland now - will post to the same when I'm done) I take it since this is linking against sepol its probably safe to assume that the patch upstreamed into ssh is relatively up-to-date? (util-linux had a similar compile problem so the same should be true) Martin -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Smalley [mailto:sds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 11 March 2008 18:33 To: Martin J.

I've see the same error when compiling checkpolicy and util-linux though Possibly your environment doesn't support shared libs or you don't have the shared libraries installed first? You need to build and install libsepol. Older versions of libselinux didn't have the libsepol dependency, so older versions of the openssh selinux patch wouldn't have linked against it either. -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
