The internals of gnome2-utils.eclass' gnome2_gdk_pixbuf_update(), which is responsable for updating x11-libs/gdk-pixbuf's loaders.cache, unfortunately cause problems with SELinux, as the mentioned file doesn't get a correct context and is therefore inaccessible by applications.
The trivial patch which I've proposed on b.g.o (#499636) has already been
acknowledged by the SELinux and GNOME herds, however the latter asked
me to send a mail to this ML as well. So, does anyone have objections
about this change?
