IPA server version: ipa-server-4.4.0-14.el7_3.x86_64

Noticed similar behavior while running upgrade tests for IPA server from 7.2.z to 7.3.up1.

Following errors were noticed:

This is most likely a different issue. Apparently you have /sbin/semanage installed on your system. Please file a new bug.

The reported error message is probably harmless and it most likely doesn't break an update translation. But it's definitely wrong.

I would suggest to fix the migrate script instead of adding new requirements to selinux-policy:

--- a/selinux-policy-migrate-local-changes.sh
+++ b/selinux-policy-migrate-local-changes.sh
@@ -63,6 +63,8 @@ if [ $REBUILD = 1 ]; then
     semodule -B -n -s $MIGRATE_SELINUXTYPE
     if [ "$MIGRATE_SELINUXTYPE" = "$SELINUXTYPE" ] && selinuxenabled; then
         load_policy
-        semanage export | semanage import
+        if [ -x /usr/sbin/semanage ]; then
+            /usr/sbin/semanage export | /usr/sbin/semanage import
+        fi
     fi
 fi

This part of script is important for Atomic images where updates are done offline and where migrated local changes need to be imported. It doesn't have any real effect on live systems as all the changes are already loaded in kernel.

/sbin is a link to /usr/sbin on rhel7 :)

Reproduce.
Test blocker.

*** Bug 1393952 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Please also note a similar issue can happen with semodule command on line 48 of the same script. The semodule binary is part of the policycoreutils package which is also not mandatory part of a rhel install. Maybe this one is just less likely.

I don't think it's a case. selinux-policy-targeted requires policycoreutils to be installed:

$ rpm -q --requires selinux-policy-targeted
...
policycoreutils >= 2.5
