Dear Clayton Shotwell,

Thanks Clayton for these patches. They are definitely interesting, but
as you've seen they are also quite big and therefore will take a bit of
time to review and get merged.

In order to ease the review process, would it be possible to get a
short introduction to SELinux, and especially what tools are needed on
the host, what tools are needed on the target? I'm especially
interested in understanding why/if we need all this Python stuff on the
target.

So essentially, having an overview of the patch series would be nice:
what the various packages are doing (you can skip the basic stuff like
ustr), and how they "interact" with each other.

Thanks a lot again for this contribution!

Thomas
