Description Vincent Brillault 2013-03-07 09:41:25 UTC
Trying to install irssi under a SELinux aware host, I received the following error:
---
The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
#required by net-irc/irssi-0.8.15-r1::lerya-net, required by irssi (argument)
# /usr/portage/profiles/base/package.mask:
# Diego E. Pettenò <flameeyes@gentoo.org> (25 Apr 2010)
#  on behalf of QA team <qa@gentoo.org
#
# Mask SElinux packages on all the profile and unmask it only for
# selinux itself; automagic dependencies can break systems otherwise
#
# Please keep this mask in sync between profiles/package.mask and
# selinux/package.mask (with - prefix there).

After some digging, I think that '-sec-policy/selinux-irc' is missing in profiles/features/selinux/package.mask

Is that policy somehow deprecated (In that case a better mask should be added) or is it just a missing line ?

You're right, corrected in CVS.
