Simply one thing:<br>
<br>
from this moment, before to update the system will pass at least two
three weeks to read IF there are problems..<br>
<br>
I'm working in a little company in Belgium..and CASUALLY I was logged
in from another console via SSH...'cause imediately after the
upgrading, it was IMPOSSIBLE to login in ANY MANNER...<br>
<br>
It means simply that IF I was logged out for any reason, or only to
have restarted the computers, is really TRAGIC for us<br>
<br>
yes because in what manner wll be possible to swith -off SELINUX if
it's IMPOSSIBLE to log-in ?!<br>
<br>
This is the last time that I give trust !.<br>
<br>
I'm sorry but I can't risk so much.<br>

My systems were also adversely affected (no login, etc.) by the most
recent policy upgrade that came from the official updates-released yum
repository.
<br>
<br>
What, if any, are the fedora testing procedures for SELinux policy? I
know developers make mistakes, but I thought that's what the
development repos were for.
<br>
<br>
I don't intend to flame, but rather to express the need for testing to
address the recent flood of policy problems in packages coming from
what are supposed to be reasonably stable repos.
<br>
<br>
Since I don't see a lack of reliability in other packages coming from
updates-released, it makes me think that the typical
development->test->release cycle does not apply to SELinux policy
packages. If this is the case, why? If not, what other reason is
there for the lack of comparable quality?
<br>
<br>
Clearly you, the fedora SELinux policy developers, are trying hard to
avoid scaring users away by incrementally tightening the policies.
However, each time a broken policy is released as stable, you lose the
trust you so patiently built.
<br>
<br>
So, my message is this:
<br>
<br>
Please test. If you already test, please test more. Thanks for your
hard work and brilliant ideas; I'm a big fan of adding MAC into
mainstream distros.
<br>
<br>
Best Regards,
<br>
Chris
