Subject: [refpolicy] [PATCH 0/4] Introduce XDG type definition
Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2011 21:46:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111003194606.GA7129@siphos.be> (raw)
This patchset introduces a new module called "xdg".
The purpose of this module is to support the XDG locations as mentioned in
the XDG Base Directory Specification [1] by introducing three types
(xdg_data_home_t, xdg_config_home_t and xdg_cache_home_t) with the related
interfaces for dealing with those types.
I opted to keep this as a separate module, rather than integrate it in an
existing domain, most notably userdomain. The main reason I have is that XDG
is targeting desktops more than servers, whereas userdomain is part of the
base policy and as such available on all (server + desktop). If this is
wrong of me, just tell me which module to use and I'll send an updated
patchset.
