To be fair, it was true for years.  Mostly the packaging has been
fixed so it usually works now if you don't change too much.   But
don't forget that there is some justification for end users making
this complaint.  Selinux is really a second layer of defense that
should really only come into play because programming correctly is
'too hard' for the developers.  But, look at the changelogs and the
history of vulnerabilities  and you'll realize that part isn't likely
to ever change.
