SELinux newbie question

SELinux newbie question

[Daniel J Walsh]

I notice a hole bunch of man pages in libsecure/man/man1.

ls
msgget.1   msgsid.1    semperm.1  semwrite.1  shmread.1
msgperm.1  msgwrite.1  semread.1  shmget.1    shmsid.1
msgread.1  semget.1    semsid.1   shmperm.1   shmwrite.1

These man pages get installed via selinux but I do not find
corresponding executables.  I did find some stuff in the test
directory that seems to correspond (Although the test programs
seem to have an "_s" attached.  Are these man pages of
test programs and therefore not intended to be installed?

You could modify the makefile in libsecure/test to install $(TARGETS) as well 
as $(UTILS), but some of the file names don't match (and there appear to be 
programs in that directory that don't have man pages).

I may make a selinux-extra package for those programs and move the man pages 
into it.  It doesn't make sense to have man pages without binaries, and the 
typical user doesn't need them.
