Same with selinux-policy-3.10.0-10.fc16.noarch

I wonder if some dependency or order is wrong so old SE tools are used for the installation?

I guess these errors means that the policy haven't been installed correctly and that it meaens that no SE bug reports on Fedora 16 can be trusted?

Does

yum reinstall selinux-policy-targeted
Give any errors?

No, not here. (But ... will scripts be run (in a realistic way) by reinstall?)

You can just run the test your self

I haven't had time to follow up on this yet, but I have noticed that the systems where I have seen this had a big need for relabeling.
