Am I looking in the wrong place?  I see no reference to redis NOR any
reference to SELinux in:

http://www.openvas.org/install-packages-v7.html (Installation guide)
https://wiki.openvas.org/index.php/Main_Page (site Wiki)
http://www.openvas.org/documentation.html (Documentation link)

These seem to be the primary channels to tell new users how to
install.  If there is a better place to look for documentation, I'd
love to see it and it might be a good idea to clearly link to it from
the installation instructions.
