Why? If it's the root of the problem... Besides "others" are free to make their own decisions, are they not? As it turned out, the OP's update/F12 problem was related to his own settings and not selinux, but initially insufficient info was given to discern that. However, my F12 update problem was. And it wasn't the first time. To date, I don't know if it's fixed. Perhaps on my next update, I'll "enable" selinux and see what happens.
