 ... i have _no_ idea :)

 if it's a dependency, maybe it's good that it breaks.

 it would be better to have some sort of more descriptive error
 message saying "you don't have a policy for apache.te but are trying
 to use openca.te".

 then people can choose, based on now knowing what's going on, to either
 install apache.te or remove openca.te.

 *shrug* :)
