If I may add more to this SELinux related thread, I would like to aply for TU and bring SELinux packages to community in the summer, to make using SELinux easier.
I dont think thats gonna work since you'll have to provide the same packages as in [core] built differently. See for example: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.arch.tur.user/19324
Providing a set of packages that is configured/built for a different purpose is different that providing a package with a patch not supported upstream.
Nope, its exactly the same. The xcb cairo backend is part of the cairo source not a patch. Cairo can be configured to take advantage of it without messing with the xlib backend using the --enable-xcb& --disable-xlib_xcb same as pam for example needs the --enable-selinux in order to use selinux https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/selinux-pam/PKGBUILD
Hmm... I thought it was a a patch. Was it declared unstable/unsupported upstream then? There was something weird like that. Anyway, I still see nothing wrong with creating SELinux packages and having them available in [community], although I would like to see a separate repo at least for the start. Allan
