[Pkg-freeipa-devel] Bug#956352: oddjob: Please stop using deprecated <selinux/flask.h> and <selinux/av_permissions.h> headers

Version: 0.34.4-1

Dear Maintainer,

Your package is using either <selinux/flask.h> and/or
<selinux/av_permissions.h> and hardcoded SELinux security classes or
permissions. This is deprecated for about 5 years and upstream has
now decided to remove these completely in the upcoming 3.1 release.

Your package should be ported to dynamically query the security
classes and permissions instead of relying on the hardcoded ones and
remove these headers.

I will bump the severity of this bug to serious when libselinux 3.1
is finally released as your package will FTBFS.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
