Personally, I'm against pushing this package to Fedora. SEPostgreSQL is not tested widely yet -- and it is thought as a replacement of original PostgreSQL.
i disagree that SE-PostgreSQL is thought of as a replacement of PostgreSQL. furthermore, that concern could be addressed with adding sufficient warning to SE-PostgreSQL's %description.
If people, who are already running their databases on PostgreSQL, wants to switch to SEPostgreSQL and if it is broken somewhere, it will harm the good reputation of PostgreSQL in terms of stability.
i think the reasonable conclusion is that SE-PostgreSQL is broken somewhere and to switch back to PostgreSQL.
Fedora is on the leading edge of SELinux development, and thus is a perfect place to test this extension of PostgreSQL.
