Hey,

I cant load base.pp now on gentoo :(. this is with 2.6-rc1.

meriadoc mcs # semodule -vvv -b base.pp -i $(ls *.pp | grep -v base.pp)

Anyone got any ideas?

It is due to the recent patch to use pp module name instead of the filename if
they are different. I will work on a fix.

ooh, I should have remembered that one. fwiw, all the other modules load
just fine its only base.pp that has issues. Would renaming it to
something else make a difference?


No. It expects all files ending with "pp" to be a policy module. I think the right solution will be to have parse_module_headers() not return an error if is unable to parse the headers and fall back to using the filename as the module name.
