4) Configure selinux You need to download and install one of the
following policy modules, depending on the pin helper you're going to
use: 

      * bluez-pin, source file here. <-- just a .te-file
      * kblupin, source file here.   <--  just a .te-file
Save the policy file and then as root, load it using the following
command:semodule -i policyname.pp 

You can't load the source file as mentioned in your HOWTO. You have to
rebuild a policy-package file and than use semodule -i file.pp to load
it.

Hi Thorsten,
thanks for the feedback. I guess the text is not clear enough :(
If you click on the 'here' link , you get the source file ( .te ) and 
you have to compile it as explained in the document ( a little bit below ).
If you click on the 'bluez-pin' or 'kbluepin' link then you get the .pp 
which can be loaded as stated with semodule -i file.pp .
I'll try to make it clearer ....

Is this something that could be added to the kdebluetooth FE submission 
rpm?  (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/186452)

Is there an "estimated date of arrival" when the package will be published in 
Fedora Extras?

Not really. You can help by reviewing it against the packaging
guidelines (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines) but it
depends on the queue and amount of help we can get.

Yes,
that would be a good idea to use those SELinux settings in the rpm. Let
me know if i can be of any help.
