Mostly because we have never had enough cycles to track down any problems with making them enforcing. However, I just checked and the s390x builders _were_ in enforcing mode. ;( They are not installed like all the rest of our builders (via kickstarts), but via a install image the mainframe admins made for us. Sorry this wasn't noticed until now. ;( I've set them all in permissive and tweaked our ansible playbooks to make sure all of them stay that way. > I still want the system policy to account for GCL, in some way or > another.

Others have expressed frustration with selinux policy maintainers of late as well. It's really hard to say what the trouble is... are there to few of them? Overtasked with other work? Workflow too difficult? Perhaps we can get FESCO or someone to work with them and try and come up with a more open and working workflow. I'm not sure what the answer is here. kevin
