Description Martin Kosek 2012-05-25 09:31:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
The way that setsebool accepts booleans looks broken:

[root@vm-143 ~]# setsebool -P httpd_manage_ipa off
[root@vm-143 ~]# setsebool httpd_manage_ipa off   <<<< should work

Usage:  setsebool [ -NP ] boolean value | bool1=val1 bool2=val2...



[root@vm-143 ~]# setsebool httpd_manage_ipa=off
[root@vm-143 ~]# setsebool -P httpd_manage_ipa=off  <<<< should work
setsebool: illegal value httpd_manage_ipa=off for boolean -P


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
policycoreutils-2.1.11-16.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run all 4 variations of booleans passed to setsebool
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Some of them report error

Expected results:
All of them succeed

# setsebool httpd_manage_ipa=off
