$ python
Python 2.4.2 (#1, Feb 12 2006, 03:59:46)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: argument number 2: a 'mode_t *' is expected, 'int(0)' is received


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libselinux-python-1.30-1.fc5

My knowledge of swig is minimal, but the attached patch seems to fix it.

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2006-04-11 18:26:47 UTC 
Fixed in rawhide - libselinux-1.30.1-1

Is this something worth backporting to FC5, or should I just wait until
something more important comes up?
Comment 3 Miloslav Trmač 2006-04-11 20:43:15 UTC 
Thanks!

I don't need it urgently, but as my main workstation has FC5 installed, it would
be nice to get a fix in FC5 sometime.
