Will do.

Thanks Dan!

Yes.  (Actually, the callout is already there, but due to a hal path
issue, it wasn't ever being called.  Once that issue is fixed, users
would start to notice the SELinux denials.  I'll wait until I see the
policy package updates before pushing any libgpod updates though.  And
no one will be the wiser, hopefully.)

Not that I'm aware of.  In RHEL, libgpod is a core package, and I
don't have any part of the maintenance there.  But it would appear
unlikely to see an update, as currently RHEL has 0.4.0, while Fedora
has 0.6.0 (which first added the callout).  The library soname changed
between 0.4.0 and 0.6.0, which makes me doubt that RHEL will bump it
during a point release.

Thanks again for the quick response!  May it rain the beverage of your
choice. ;)
