Local Packages
Updated contagged to support building with included SELinux policy on RHEL5
Created php-Smarty packages for some older distributions that don't have it (needed for contagged)
Updated dovecot to 1.0.1 and merged in the change in the Rawhide version to put SQL support in DSOs and separate subpackages
I had a problem running repoview on Fedora 7:
ImportError: No module named elementtree.SimpleXMLWriter
This is Bug #232590. The quick workaround was to build and install the python-elementtree package from Fedora CVS, though it'll be removed courtesy of an obsolete as soon as a python update comes around. Hopefully there will be an update to repoview before then.
The recent pam update to version/release 0.99.7.1-5.1.fc7 caused failed dovecot logins due to SELinux denials:
type=AVC msg=audit(1182087900.637:32303): avc: denied { execute } for pid=25443 comm="dovecot-auth" name="unix_update" dev=dm-0 ino=384037 scontext=user_u:system_r:dovecot_auth_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:updpwd_exec_t:s0 tclass=fileThis was easily fixed in a local policy module and will apparently be fixed in selinux-policy 2.6.4-17 (Bug #244534).
