From: Vikram Noel Ambrose [mailto:noel.ambrose@xxxxxxxxx] >> 4. libselinux is being installed to $(LIBDIR). In this case, it should default to the system library. > What does that mean? libselinux and libsepol should be installed to /lib (or /lib64). The reason is because /usr/lib may be on a different filesystem, but /lib (and /lib64) is nearly guaranteed to be available by the time the system will load the SELinux policy. >> 7. There is no definition for the variable abs_top_srcdir in src/Makefile.am. >Thats built in. You dont need to define it. Have a look at the resulting >Makefile This probably depends upon the version of automake that read the Makefile.in. Maybe the bleeding edge version of automake defines $(abs_top_srcdir), but the one that I am using does not. >> 8. By default, the libselinux configuration file is written to $(SYSCONFDIR), but selinux_config.c has the path /etc/selinux hardcoded. (N.b. the missing "selinux" subdirectory for the former path.) >How is that a problem? One would expect that the default flags to configure would build working SELinux userspace libraries and tools. Even if the end-user is expected to pass in a --sysconfdir flag to configure, selinux_config.c does not respect it. Perhaps a patch to selinux_config.c is necessary? -- Jason Tang / jtang@xxxxxxxxxx -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
