Description Bill Nottingham 2007-05-23 19:22:42 UTC
Description of problem:

When I try and launch it, it a) offers to do some initialization b) tells me it
needs a reboot.

Why?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

seedit-gui-2.1.1-2.fc7.1

seedit uses its own policy type(seedit), so 
domains and types are different from default SELinux(targeted policy).
To label filesystem, and to assign domains correctly, we need reboot.


Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2007-05-24 02:42:16 UTC
Ugh. There should probably be some more warnings as to what is going on there,
as changing the policy could:

a) compromise the security of the system
b) generally break things.

I suppose if that's what it's doing, the warning/reboot is NOTABUG. But it
should better describe the initialization that it's doing.

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-04-04 00:53:00 UTC
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported
against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no
longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are
flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer
maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now,
we will automatically close it.

If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or
rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change
the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version
or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.)

Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled
these issues to this point.

The process we're following is outlined here:

We will be following the process here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this
doesn't happen again.

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2008-05-07 01:48:13 UTC
This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was
first requested. As a result we are closing it.

If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora
version please feel free to reopen it against that version.
