2003071106 on RH 7.2

[Paul L. Allen]

I grabbed a copy of the 2003071106 version of SE Linux and attempted
a "make quickinstall" on an old RedHat 7.2 partition.  It got part
way through the build and stopped with a complaint that it could not
find yacc.  So I put "bison -y $*" in /usr/bin/yacc and re-ran the
make.

It went a bit farther, but then stopped with this complaint:

ERROR 'unknown type system_mail_t' at token ';' on line 28350

It's apparently loading a policy.conf file from somewhere under
/etc/security/selinux and doesn't know what "system_mail_t" is.
Well, that makes two of us.  :-)

Since I don't see anybody else on the list talking about this, it
must be my fault.  Can anybody suggest what I might have done wrong
or where to look to fix it?  I've printed a pile of documents on SE
Linux, but have only waded through a bit of it so far.  I'm a long-
time Unix admin and programmer, but am brand-new to SE Linux.

Any help will be appreciated.

I tried to reproduce this and it seemed to work fine.

Please gzip the policy.conf file and put it on a web server where I can get a 
copy.  Also tell me about any changes you may have made.

Probably need to:
 
    mv domains/program/unused/mta.te domains/program/

I usually miss that one too.
