Bug Description

Please sync refpolicy (universe) from Debian unstable (main).

Changelog since current feisty version 0.0.20061018-3:

refpolicy (0.0.20061018-5) unstable; urgency=high

  * Add policy for log and lock files for aptitude. This is needed for
    proper function; so one does not need to go into permissive mode to
    run aptitude. Stolen from Erich. This is a low risk change.
  * Debian puts grub in /usr/sbin/grub. Reflect that in the initial file
    context.
  * Debian creates /dev/xconsole independently of whether or not a xserver
    has been installed or not. So move the policy related to /dev/sconsole
    out of the xserver policy, and into places where relevant (init.te,
    logging.fc), to reflect the status that /dev/console is present
    anyway.
  * Add support for /etc/network/run and /dev/shm/network, which seem to
    be Debian specific as well.
  * Allow udev to manage configuration files.

refpolicy (0.0.20061018-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Bug fix: "selinux-policy-refpolicy-targeted: does not suggest a way to
    fix the 'maybe failing' attempt in postinst", thanks to Eddy Petrisor.
    While this does not belong in the postinst, I have addedthis to the
    README.Debian file. This should be a low risk change. (Closes: #407691).
  * Bug fix: "Default build.conf doesn't match default strict/targeted
    policy", thanks to Stefan.The build.conf included in the reference
    source policy describe to build a policy of the type "strict". The
    default binary policies coming with Debian are build with the policy
    type "strict-mcs" or "targeted-mcs". Change the build.conf shipped in
    source to conform to what we really use. (changes TYPE=strict to
    TYPE=strict-mcs, very low risk change. (Closes: #411256).
  * Bug fix: "selinux-policy-refpolicy-targeted: openvpn policy do not
    allow tcp connection mode", thanks to Rafal Kupka. This bug really
    should be at least important, and we should fully support a class of
    security product like OpenVPN on machines which are running SELinux,
    and this is a very low risk change. (Closes: #409041).
  * Install header files required for policy building for both strict and
    targeted policies in a new -dev package, so it becomes really useful
    to work with the source package. Moved the examples from the -src
    package to this new -dev package, since the example is only useful in
    with the headers provided. This is a new package, but it contains only
    files already in the sources (No upstream changes at all), and is the
    result of make install-headers. This new package has no rdepends, and
    should be a very low risk addition to Debian.
  * This release should be a whole lot better for building local policies,
    including the policygentool for creating a new policy from scratch,
    and ability to build local policy modular packages. The build.conf
    files have been cleaned up, and the source policy defaults to targeted
    policy, which is standard in Debian, as opposed to the strict policy,
    which has priority optional.
