Sure Andy but I think I just proved SELinux IS the problem and it is a

Good!
I suggested this to Karl, because I had a situation where messing with
selinux rpms (i.e., uninstalling/reinstalling) had resulted in cups
being disabled. (Everything else worked, apparently.) So don't
immediately dismiss Karl's claims...
I can not turn OFF SELinux. I just checked and it is still ON!
So please tell me how to turn it off and I will try to uninstall it.
Edit /etc/selinux/config to disable it.
You can not uninstall it entirely.
selinux has improved dramatically. It used to break everything... but it
has matured into a really useful security tool. Personally, I suggest
that you leave it enabled, and learn to identify its quirks.
