Description of problem:

yum install selinux-policy-targeted --installroot=/some/path produces:


  Installing     : selinux-policy                                         93/96 

  Installing     : selinux-policy-targeted                                94/96libsemanage.semanage_reload_policy: load_policy returned error code 2.
libsemanage.semanage_install_active: Could not copy /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/policy.kern to /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.21.

Looks like rpm scriptlets need some adjustment.

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2013-03-19 15:08:44 UTC

Did you test it on RHEL6 also?

Comment 2 Eric Paris 2013-03-19 18:57:54 UTC

We are not going handle alternate install roots in the scriptlets in RHEL5.  If this is a problem in later releases you may propose this or a similar bug on that release.
