Name        : policycoreutils
Version     : 1.18.1
Release     : 2
Summary     : SELinux policy core utilities.
Description :
Security-enhanced Linux is a patch of the Linux® kernel and a number
of utilities with enhanced security functionality designed to add
mandatory access controls to Linux.  The Security-enhanced Linux

architectural components provide general support for the enforcement
of many kinds of mandatory access control policies, including those
based on the concepts of Type Enforcement®, Role-based Access
Control, and Multi-level Security.

policycoreutils contains the policy core utilities that are required
for basic operation of a SELinux system.  These utilities include

to switch roles, and run_init to run /etc/init.d scripts in the proper
context.

for strict policy.  Removing prevents possible relabeling problems.
