[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#626725: initscripts: Needs to set SELinux labels for /run

[Martin Orr]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.88dsf-13.5
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Directories and symlinks created as part of the /run transition are not
labelled for SELinux.  The effect is that most services fail to start on
boot after transitioning to /run.

You need to run restorecon after creating a directory or symbolic link
in an init script or maintainer script.  Attached patch does this.

/run with SELinux also requires the refpolicy patch I have submitted in
#626720.  Once that is fixed, initscripts should probably have
Breaks: selinux-policy-default (<< $FIXEDVERSION)
