The same version of selinux-utils is in jessie and in stretch. And I got
it to work in jessie so I'm not sure that your report is accurate. Until
then I drop the severity to important to avoid the removal of the package
from testing...

How did you come to the conclusion that it was not working?

Please give the output of the following commands (on the system that is
supposed to be SELinux enabled):

cat /proc/cmdline
grep GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX /etc/default/grub
sudo selinuxenabled && echo yes

Bug#795518: selinux-utils: neither labels set or SELinux enabled

2015-08-14 Thread Richard Jasmin
Package: selinux-utils
Version: 2.3-2+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

when using sudo selinux-activate to enable SELinux and setting rcS properly,
nothing actually happens once you reboot.The system respawns itself into a
working state once more but SELinux remains disabled with no clue as to
why.There is no other way to enable it and force a relabel of the system, which
does not seem to happen when enabling SELinux.

This seems to be a stretch problem as other version of debian seem to succeed
at this point.Id use Jessie but xarchiver and ark have SEVERE data loss issues
when making a backup set.
