Comment 1 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2008-11-17 20:09:11 UTC
I'm afraid it's my fault, because I introduced a version of libx264 with sse2 enabled in /usr/lib/sse2 while disabling asm optimizations in the one in /usr/lib/. This lets people with less capable CPUs use libx264 without it crashing with SIGILL.

Hopefully this will get fixed soon.

Comment 2 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2008-11-17 20:19:00 UTC
As a temporary measure, I'm reverting the changes that produced the /usr/lib/sse2/libx264.so.* in RPMFusion until selinux policy catches up.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2008-11-17 20:33:51 UTC
So does /usr/lib/sse2/libx264.so  need textrel_shlib_t?  Is it going to need this forever?

Yes. Upstream has already dropped support for compiling it with -fPIC on x86_32 due to insufficient number of registers.

Comment 7 Daniel Walsh 2008-11-17 21:52:07 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.5.13-21.fc10

Comment 8 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 05:30:53 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 9 Bug Zapper 2009-11-18 08:52:56 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '10'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
