Description Alexander Todorov 2008-04-24 14:22:35 UTC
Description of problem:
RTT automated test cases have discovered lots of mislabeled files on latest
RHEL4.7 installs. The file context is compared to the values in 
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-targeted-1.17.30-2.149

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the OS
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Lots of mislabeled files

Expected results:
Few mislabeled files (due to being CDROM instead of hard drive or the intended
context was not appropriate)

Additional info:
Some of the problems come from %post scriptlets that are mislabeling files when
package is installed.
We're opening this bug to track a release note as the list of files is not small
and they'll have to be evaluated on one-by-one basis (most probably).

Hi,

the RHEL4.7 release notes deadline is on June 17, 2008 (Tuesday). they will
undergo a final proofread before being dropped to translation, at which point no
further additions or revisions will be entertained.

a mockup of the RHEL4.7 release notes can be viewed here:
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/RHEL4u7relnotesmockup.html

please use the aforementioned link to verify if your bugzilla is already in the
release notes (if it needs to be). each item in the release notes contains a
link to its original bug; as such, you can search through the release notes by
bug number.

Cheers,
Don
