Thanks for this patch series. As you've seen, I've started integrating
the first patches. However, the tarballs are not located where
specified by your .mk file (the build worked in my
case because I had the tarballs locally). And the selinuxproject.org
site is down currently, so I can't fix anything. This is causing some
build failures such as:

  http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/a95/a95412f8e78a64bbbf5a7981db35cdea0108e8b4/build-end.log

If we can't find an upstream location with those tarballs quickly, then
I'll disable those packages for now.

Also, it seems that Debian has libselinux 2.3, while your package is
still using 2.1. Would it be possible to bump to 2.3 at some point?

Finally, I have found what appears to be the new Git repository for the
SELinux development at https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux. And
it seems that now all components are in a single Git repository. Are
they still doing separate tarballs for each component? I have the
feeling that packaging separately checkpolicy, libselinux, libsemanage,
libsepol, policycoreutils and sepolgen is maybe not the way to go.

Can you clarify this before I spend more time merging more of your
patches?

Thanks,

Thomas
