Nicolas Iooss e505694406 scripts/env_use_destdir: fix Fedora support
libselinux and libsemanage use:

    PYTHONLIBDIR ?= $(shell $(PYTHON) -c "from distutils.sysconfig
    import *; print(get_python_lib(plat_specific=1,
    prefix='$(PREFIX)'))")

while python/semanage and python/sepolgen/src/sepolgen use:

    PYTHONLIBDIR ?= $(shell $(PYTHON) -c "from distutils.sysconfig
    import *; print(get_python_lib(prefix='$(PREFIX)'))")

This is right: libselinux and libsemanage's Python bindings use native
code (thus "plat_specific=1") while the others only install Python
files.

Nevertheless `scripts/env_use_destdir` only runs the second command
when computing `$PYTHONPATH`. When using this script to run `make test`
in a minimal Fedora 31 environment, this leads to an error such as:

    make[2]: Entering directory '/code/python/sepolicy'
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "test_sepolicy.py", line 117, in <module>
        import selinux
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'selinux'

Fix this by also adding `get_python_lib(plat_specific=1)` to the
computed `$PYTHONPATH`.

While at it, preserve `$PYTHONPATH` instead of resetting it. This makes
it easier to work with Python virtual environments.

Installation

SELinux libraries and tools are packaged in several Linux distributions:

Building and testing

Build dependencies on Fedora:

# For C libraries and programs
dnf install \
    audit-libs-devel \
    bison \
    bzip2-devel \
    CUnit-devel \
    diffutils \
    flex \
    gcc \
    gettext \
    glib2-devel \
    make \
    libcap-devel \
    libcap-ng-devel \
    pam-devel \
    pcre-devel \
    xmlto

# For Python and Ruby bindings
dnf install \
    python3-devel \
    ruby-devel \
    swig

Build dependencies on Debian:

# For C libraries and programs
apt-get install --no-install-recommends --no-install-suggests \
    bison \
    flex \
    gawk \
    gcc \
    gettext \
    make \
    libaudit-dev \
    libbz2-dev \
    libcap-dev \
    libcap-ng-dev \
    libcunit1-dev \
    libglib2.0-dev \
    libpcre3-dev \
    pkgconf \
    python3 \
    python3-distutils \
    systemd \
    xmlto

# For Python and Ruby bindings
apt-get install --no-install-recommends --no-install-suggests \
    python3-dev \
    ruby-dev \
    swig

To build and install everything under a private directory, run:

make clean distclean

make DESTDIR=~/obj install install-rubywrap install-pywrap

To run tests with the built libraries and programs, several paths (relative to $DESTDIR) need to be added to variables $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, $PATH and $PYTHONPATH. This can be done using ./scripts/env_use_destdir:

DESTDIR=~/obj ./scripts/env_use_destdir make test

Some tests require the reference policy to be installed (for example in python/sepolgen). In order to run these ones, instructions similar to the ones in section install of ./.travis.yml can be executed.

To install as the default system libraries and binaries (overwriting any previously installed ones - dangerous!), on x86_64, run:

make LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHLIBDIR=/lib64 install install-pywrap relabel

or on x86 (32-bit), run:

make install install-pywrap relabel

This may render your system unusable if the upstream SELinux userspace lacks library functions or other dependencies relied upon by your distribution. If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.

macOS

To install libsepol on macOS (mainly for policy analysis):

cd libsepol; make PREFIX=/usr/local install

This requires GNU coreutils:

brew install coreutils
