46 Yes, on behalf of both Hardened and SELinux, please keep those
47 components.

49 The bugs can be a problem with the hardening or SELinux policy in which
50 case we just fix it without bothering the maintainer who probably doesnt
51 even have an selinux system to test the changes. Sometimes there is an
52 actual bug in the package in which case we can easily involve the
53 maintainer or assign to them completely.
