I thought I'd better follow this up with a semi-separate thread for
anyone who is using meta-selinux and isn't really interested in the
direct follow-ups when I just indicate a patch has been merged.

This went into master and it captures, I think, the implicit
dependencies in the layer right now.  It actually casts a wider net than
is required if you're building core-image-selinux, but it does describe
what's currently included in the layer in terms of appends, so it's the
right thing to do.

If you've been working with a smaller set of selinux layers before,
you'll probably see an error like this:

ERROR: Layer 'selinux' depends on layer 'meta-python', but this layer is not enabled in your configuration
ERROR: Layer 'selinux' depends on layer 'networking-layer', but this layer is not enabled in your configuration
ERROR: Layer 'selinux' depends on layer 'openembedded-layer', but this layer is not enabled in your configuration
ERROR: Layer 'selinux' depends on layer 'virtualization-layer', but this layer is not enabled in your configuration

If you don't want to bring in all of these additional layers, my advice
for the short term is to stick with either the 1.7 branch or if you know
you need to work on master, stick with commit 0d270cbd.

-J.
