This weekend I upgraded my Linux system from Fedora 11 to Fedora 14 (and got 
all updates) and I have just now installed, as root, the latest stable version 
of Lilypond.  When I tried just getting the current version number I got this 
in the console:

*********************
$ lilypond -v
/usr/local/lilypond/usr/bin/lilypond: error while loading shared libraries: 
libgmp.so.3: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: 
Permission denied
*********************

Then, an SELinux alert popped up.  I got the detailed report which follows 
below.  I suppose this is off topic but I thought I'd start here.

Thanks,

David


*********************
SELinux is preventing /usr/local/lilypond/usr/bin/lilypond from using the 
execstack access on a process.

*****  Plugin allow_execstack (53.1 confidence) suggests  ********************

If you believe that 
None
should not require execstack
Then you should clear the execstack flag and see if 
/usr/local/lilypond/usr/bin/lilypond works correctly.
Report this as a bug on None.
You can clear the exestack flag by executing:
Do
execstack -c None

*****  Plugin catchall_boolean (42.6 confidence) suggests  *******************

If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack executable.  
This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a badly coded 
executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable should be reported in 
bugzilla
Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'allow_execstack' boolean.
Do
setsebool -P allow_execstack 1

*****  Plugin catchall (5.76 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that lilypond should be allowed execstack access on processes 
labeled unconfined_t by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep lilypond /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
