It can require a specific version of the kernel to be installed, but having it installed isn't the same as running it. In most cases people will get both updates at the same time but the selinux update will take effect immediately, whilst the kernel update takes effect only after a reboot.
Best thing to do would have been to conflict with earlier kernel versions (and possibly check the running kernel version in a script). (Can a script cause an RPM installation to fail?) This all presupposes that the problems were known in advance, however. Clearly, they weren't. -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher i.pilcher@xxxxxxxxxxx ========================================================================
