* newer SELinux kernels have access checks that the shipping SELinux policy package does not
understand. The kernel currently denies these access checks by default. This updated libsepol
package allows the checkpolicy and selinux-policy packages to build policy that tells the kernel to
"Allow" unknown access.
All SELinux users should install this updated package which resolves this issue.

1.106.1. RHBA-2009:1525: bug fix update
Note
This update has already been released (prior to the GA of this release) as errata
RHBA-2009:1525
Updated libuser packages that fix a bug are now available.
The libuser library implements a standardized interface for manipulating and administering user and
group accounts. Applications that are modeled after applications from the shadow password suite are
included in these packages.
These updated libuser packages fix the following bug:
* nscd, the name service caching daemon, provides a cache for common name service requests. The
libuser utilities were unable to signal to nscd that its cache should be refreshed, which caused name
service delays after changing user account information. For example, after adding a new user with the
luseradd utility, the newly-added user was not available until ncsd invalidated and subsequently rebuilt
its cache. With this update, the libuser utilities are once again able to signal to nscd that it should
rebuild its cache, with the effect that changes that affect the name service take effect more quickly.
