Hopefully the last time we will ever need to update. Once patch gets
out with kernel support to tell me which file systems support xattr, we
can remove this hack.

If a package owned a directory like /var/lib/libvirt/images, when it is
relabeling we would want it to relabel not only the directory but the

Init script should be 755
libflashplayer.so has moved in the homedir and is now correct so no
longer needs to have labeling checked.
restorecond supports glob matching and should not complain on multiple
hard links if they match a glob.
So if a file has > 1 link and is an exact match complain, otherwise do not.
Also fix a couple of error messages.

Change semanage/seobject to use semanage_mls_enabled() rather than
is_selinux_mls_enabled(). I dropped the mls enabled tests altogether
from the semanage front-end script since setting up a handle is done by
seobject.py; if those checks are actually important, we could move them
inside of the seobject methods, but I'm not clear on the real benefit of
those checks. In seobject.py, I moved the setting of the is_mls_enabled
variable inside of get_handle(store) after the connect. I also dropped
the is_mls_enabled test from setransRecords since no handle/connection
exists there (since translations are not managed via libsemanage), and
again I'm not clear that the check there was overly important/useful.

I have added supported for GLOB expressions in restorecond. In order to
get nsplugin to work well, you need all of the contents of the homedir
labeled correctly. Unfortunately gnome creates directories at a fairly
random pace. FCFS. So it is very difficult to get transitions to
happen properly. As a tradeoff, we can use restorecond to watch the
homedir and relabel the directory when it is created. I know this is a
potential race condition. where some of the files created in the
directory will still have the wrong context, but I don't know of a
better solution.
Telling everyone they need to restorcon -R -v ~ is not a great solution.
If you are worried about information flow you should never rely on
restorecond.

Sorry, it took some time. The revised patch for nodecon support in
the semanage tool is attached.
It now takes strings as arguments for the ip protocol. list/locallist
work as expected and output is more readable. I also made changes for
the semanage.8 man page.
