Subject: Default Mikefile in /usr/share/selinux/devel not nice
Date: Fri, 29 Sep 2006 16:12:15 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <451D8C2F.9040901@us.ibm.com> (raw)

I just discovered a nasty surprise waiting for me in the default 
Makefile provided by selinux-policy-devel.

Basically, the Makefile produces, on an MLS system, a TYPE value of 
mls-msc (this is due to the SELINUXTYPE=mls line in 
/etc/selinux/config). This will not 'enable_mls' for the M4FLAGS, 
because the Makefile in /usr/share/selinux/devel/include/ does a 
findstring for '-mls'.

Dan Walsh has suggested a fix for the default Makefile, but I'm 
wondering why we can't just change 
/usr/share/selinux/devel/include/Makefile to do a $(findstring 
mls,$TYPE)) instead, since its not unreasonable to think that TYPE=mls 
makes sense.

Thanks,
Mike
