Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-mls-3.7.19-78

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fresh RHEL6.1-20110311.3 with mls policy

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2011-03-15 12:03:28 UTC
Looks like we need policy for matahari-hostd.  I don't think we want to add random dontaudit for MLS policy.  If you install an app that is not supported on MLS, we have to write policy for it.

Comment 2 Karel Srot 2011-03-15 12:37:58 UTC
Well, matahari-hostd is a part of the minimal install, I didn't choose to install install it explicitely. Threfore I thought it was intentional to not have a policy.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2011-03-15 14:56:43 UTC
Well I just wrote initial matahari policy in F15,  We will need to get this back ported to RHEL6.  But I don't believe that matahari should be in the minimal install since I don't think MLS people will want it there.

Comment 4 Steve Grubb 2011-03-15 15:25:54 UTC
Regarding comment #2, how did matahari get in minimal install? It should not be there.

Comment 5 Dennis Gregorovic 2011-03-16 17:58:39 UTC
Karel,

Please do another install.  This time, before the reboot at the end of the install, switch to terminal two and grab /tmp/yum.log.  That should tell us why matahari is getting pulled in.

Thanks
-- Dennis

Comment 6 Subhendu Ghosh 2011-03-16 22:08:15 UTC
Also - is this using only @core for package selection ? or @base ?

patch (comps)

I think the issue is that client-mgmt-tools is defaulted to on in the variants file, but is not listed in the product installclass files. This means it's not disabled when minimal is chosen.

Patch attached.

Comment 12 Alexander Todorov 2011-04-18 14:07:12 UTC
Tested with snap #4. Did a Minimal install and matahari wasn't installed. Moving to VERIFIED.
