The main thing at the moment is to get libselinux into base. Then we can
hopefully get patched cron and sysvinit in there, and logrotate compiled with
SE Linux support.
Another thing that has to be done is to have PAM sorted out. PAM is
effectively forked multiple times. The Red Hat and the Debian PAM packages
have different patches and no work is being done to improve the situation at
the moment. Everyone seems to agree that if someone takes over PAM upstream
and incorporates the fixes then they will follow it instead of the current
upstream of PAM. Know anyone who wants to take over PAM upstream?
