These first three are all SELinux policy. CCing Miroslav to look at them. Miroslav, I'll be online in about 90 minutes to discuss this on IRC if you need me to, but the short version is this: previously, ipa-server-install would have always been run by root running in the unconfined domain. We now have a service that will invoke it (rolekit). We need to update the policy to allow the roled daemon to perform these tasks.

Simo, this is likely the bug that Dan Mossor was trying to report yesterday as well. Can you please get the FreeIPA team to look at this ASAP? As noted, all of these are likely to be approved as blockers to Fedora 21 Beta and we really don't want to slip if we can help it; the current target date is already too close to the winter holidays for our comfort.

Thanks, Adam. I'll look at them in greater detail when I get to my desk (currently typing on a mobile device). Thanks for the comprehensive testing yesterday.
