Description Linus Walleij 2008-01-04 10:29:44 UTC
As it says, these services/daemons:

mcstrans
restorecond
setroubleshoot

are still set to start automatically even if you chose to disable SELinux during
install. I see no immediate reason for, and endusers may be confused as to why
these services/daemons are still enabled (atleast I was).

Bug initated from disussion on fedora-devel following bug 249204.

Comment 1 Linus Walleij 2008-01-04 22:40:07 UTC
Since it turns out all of these services will auto-terminate
if SELinux is disabled, I rephrase the bug so that it now cosiders
a system-config-services usability issue, the

# description: nnnn

fields in /etc/init.d/{mcstrans|restorecond|setroubleshoot}
are too simplistic, and as this is all the user of s-c-s sees,
need to be expanded to include information that indicates that the
user do not need to disable this service if they're not using SELinux,
since it will auto-terminate.

I'm making up patches, hold on.

Comment 2 Chris Lumens 2008-01-08 04:01:30 UTC
This needs to be filed against the individual packages that provide those
programs, then.  Thanks for the bug report.  You can attach your patches to new
bugs filed against those components.
