I reassigned the bug to a SELinux package and it was immediately bounced
back to the Leafnode package.  What this tells me is that you do not
wish to see this fixed in the SELinux packages but would rather see this
fixed in the Leafnode package.  Now you're telling me that this should,
as I had originally understood, be fixed in the SELinux packages.

I'm sorry, I can't entirely parse what you're saying here.  You appear
to be talking about having the ability to build new SELinux policies?
This is obviously true - the point is that there is no visible support
for including new SELinux policy information in packages.

Either you want me to implement SELinux support in the Leafnode package
or you want this to be done in the SELinux packages.  Which is the case?
