Mostly because of about two or three people griping that their kitten is not a pony. *Usually* I find it doesn't prevent things from working properly, and the occasions that rarely happens, a fix is the solution, and fairly rapidly, too. It does often prevent some things from working improperly (a little fact that some choose to ignore). > Why do you think the SELinux-policy packages in Fedora get updated such > kind of frequently? A nice amount of these simply are fixes to broken > rules. But yes, there are snags from time to time, and they do get fixed. And that's a much better solution than just throwing the whole kit and kaboodle away, as some would advocate. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.5-76.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
