Comment 2 Eric Paris 2013-09-04 14:33:51 UTC 
This bug should also be used to make sure that a -fips subpackage is created along with the fixes to the self-test.
Comment 3 Tomas Mraz 2013-12-04 15:35:56 UTC 
Actually the -fips subpackage will not be created. The FIPS mode initialization should be based on this table:

                     | /etc/system-fips | no /etc/system-fips
---------------------+------------------+----------------------
kernel fips flag     |       enforce    |    no test/no fips
---------------------+------------------+------
no kernel fips flag  |       test       |    no test

test = verify checksums only
enforce = verify checksums & abort in case of failure
