tests/misc/chcon.log
Thanks for report, will try to find suitable solution for unactive selinux translation... but I don't know about which patch you are talking about. Chcon implementation was in selinux patch in coreutils-6.9, coreutils-6.10 are using upstream implementation of chcon (which is very similar to implementation in coreutils-selinux.patch ). Sorry, I didn't have an exact look to it, I thought that SELinux would come from that patch. The fix is IMHO just to allow both: With and without translation. But I don't know how the check is performed, maybe just an regexp? In coreutils-6.9 all selinux things were from that selinux patch - coreutils-6.10 included selinux things by default - but unfortunately in some cases unlike with Red Hat patch. Therefore upstream solution is based on Red Hat patch, but sometimes not the same. Chcon check is following: perform some commands and compare results with expected results. So maybe the easiest way would be to skip the test when translation is not active - as is already done for the case of some only "non-root" tests executed by root. Anyway - chcon is root only test, so it will be skipped when rebuild with non-root user. So that's an easy workaround for the issue. Same problem with not running mcstrans(d) was with cp-a-selinux test. While fixing that issue I found that the chcon test fails in selinux enforcing mode as well... Both issues fixed and built as coreutils-6.10-15.fc9, closing RAWHIDE. Thanks for the report and investigation. I've fixed this upstream: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13098 |
