Hello,
I maintain SELinux packages for Arch Linux and recently I came to an error when building refpolicy:
Creating refpolicy bootloader.pp policy package

This happens when building the 20110726 release, it happenes also with the previous release and current git for some time, so I'd say Arch has some
"compiler" or library at too recent version or with wrong build options. Also I have to use some fairly outdated flex package to get this far in the build
proces, or I get some other error message earlier in the build. Could you please help me resolve these issuese, as currently SELinux is not usable on Arch.
I will provide any other information, but currently I am lost with this. I didn't find any list of build-dependencies others than checkpolicy and libsepol,
nor did me any good looking into the fedora's src rpm.
Thanx, Nicky

Its likely a toolchain problem. I could compile the policy with the
previous release toolchain and current release toolchain with flex
2.5.35_p10 and bison 2.5. IIRC buggy flex causes problems like this.

Hi, thanx. What do you mean by toolchain? The SELinux userspace? I I use Arch's flex 2.5.35-4 and bison 2.5-1 the build process end earlier with:

This version of package flex you are refering to is fedoras version?

Actually its Gentoo's version. I haven't heard any problems from Dan
about compile errors like this in Fedora, so I'm still thinking its your
toolchain. Did you rebuild checkpolicy after changing flex and bison?
This pops up from time to time, the last thread I can find on it is here:
http://marc.info/?l=selinux&m=126762983301065&w=2
Also cc'ing Steve Smalley in case he has any additional feedback.
Steve: maybe we should put up a page on the selinuxproject.org about
these flex issues. Maybe a summary of what we know or known bad
versions or something.

I tried various combinations of versions of flex, bison and selinux userspace. I didn't succede on my SELinux netbook. I managed to build refpolicy on my
primary machine with just latest SELinux Userspace and prehistoric flex (2.5.4a-4), that is version combination which does not build the policy on my
netbook. I don't quite get it, especially as the software configuration is quite alike.

Unfortunately all I can suggest is to try the SELinux list for further help. They'll be better able to sort out any toolchain issues you may have.
