Some distros configure logrotate to put its status file somewhere else
than the default /var/lib/logrotate.status. Debian puts it in
/var/lib/logrotate/, and Gentoo uses /var/lib/misc/.
Remove complement (~) and wildcard (*) in allow rules so that there are no
unintentional additions when new permissions are declared.
This patch does not add or remove permissions from any rules.
This patch is slightly more involved than just running sed. It also adds
typealias rules and doesn't change the FC entries.
The /dev/apm_bios device doesn't exist on modern systems. I have left that
policy in for the moment on the principle of making one change per patch. But
I might send another patch to remove that as it won't exist with modern
kernels.
This patch adds a lot of policy that is needed to setup an initramfs and grub
on Debian nowadays.
Also changed a comment about ia64 to correctly mention EFI.
Put in libx32 subs entries that refer to directories with fc entries.
Allow dpkg_t to transition to dpkg_script_t when it executes bin_t for
dpkg-reconfigure.
Some dontaudit rules for mta processes spawned by mon for notification.
Lots of tiny changes that are obvious.
On systems such as Arch Linux, all programs which are usually located in
/bin, /sbin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin are present in /usr/bin and the
other locations are symbolic links to this directory. With such a
configuration, the file contexts which define types for files in
/bin, /sbin and /usr/sbin need to be duplicated to provide definitions
for /usr/bin/...
As the "/bin vs. /usr/bin" part of the needed definitions has already
been done with the "usr merge" patches, the next step consists in
duplicating file contexts for /usr/sbin. This is what this patch does
for all modules which are not in contrib.
This is the second iteration of an idea I have previously posted on
http://oss.tresys.com/pipermail/refpolicy/2017-March/009176.html
Some policy modules define file contexts in /bin, /sbin and /lib without
defining similar file contexts in the same directory under /usr.
Add these missing file contexts when there are outside ifdef blocks.
