No offense, but I'm hardly a newbie user and the only steps I
understood above were "reboot".  What's the difference between a
policy and a checkpolicy?  Why are the files broken?  What's a
label, and what was it set to before that was wrong?

Seriously, this is a major paradigm change being pushed with this
release, and the documentation is awfully sparse.  What's the
rationale?  What do we stand to gain?  What old habits are we
going to have to break?  As it stands, it seems like Red Hat is
feeding us something and telling us its good for us without, as
it were, providing a nutition analysis label.
