Comment 1 Thomas Woerner 2007-09-04 15:17:20 UTC
This is also a problem in FC-6:libselinux-1.33.4-2.fc6 and
F-7:libselinux-2.0.14-4.fc7.

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2007-09-06 12:38:39 UTC
Fixed in libselinux-2_0_31-4_fc8

Is this important enough to back port?

Comment 3 Thomas Woerner 2007-09-07 09:29:16 UTC
Yes, I think this is important enough.
