circular policy references generated by sepolgen

[Michael Atighetchi]

All,

I have a number of custom policies that I developed on a Fedora 14 
system by using sepolgen and iterating over the policies up to a point 
where they are violation free.

When trying to install those policies on another system, I've run into a 
circular dependency issue. No matter what order I  call the 6 .sh 
scripts created by sepolgen, I always end up with missing required 
types, e.g.,:

----
[proxyuser at lime selinux]$ sudo ./CZwd.sh
Building and Loading Policy
+ make -f /usr/share/selinux/devel/Makefile
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
+ /usr/sbin/semodule -i CZwd.pp
libsepol.print_missing_requirements: CZwd's global requirements were not 
met: type/attribute CZfwa_t (No such file or directory).
libsemanage.semanage_link_sandbox: Link packages failed (No such file or 
directory).
/usr/sbin/semodule:  Failed!
----

Presumably, one can break these cycles by defining all required types first.
Is there a manual way to do this using the SELinux tools?

Thanks
Michael
