Side note - Changelog (below) includes some fixes for selinux.  This is
great!  But it causes runs to take a very long time.  From 60s to 160s.
So we have some decisions to make.  We can continue to upgrade to 24.6.
Or we can wait for 24.7 to come out (this issue is already fixed in head).

I see pros and cons in both directions and I don't mind waiting longer for
a while for puppet runs but I thought I'd ask the rest of you.  What do
you think?
