Please sync refpolicy (universe) from Debian unstable (main).

Changelog since current feisty version 0.0.20061018-1:

refpolicy (0.0.20061018-3) unstable; urgency=high

  * Bug fix: "refpolicy: FTBFS: /bin/sh: debian/stamp/config-strict: No
    such file or directory", thanks to Lucas Nussbaum. This was fixed by
    moving all the stamps into ./debian instead. I'll re-visit the
    ./debian/stamp/ directory in lenny. This is a pretty minor packaging
    change.                                                 (Closes: #405613).
  * Bug fix: "selinux-policy-refpolicy-targeted: Policy for dcc misses
    Debian's FHS paths", thanks to Devin Carraway. From the bug report:
    Many of the files in these packages are overlooked when labelling
    files, because refpolicy's dcc module stipulates paths not consistent
    with the Debian FHS layout.  The files go unlabelled and dcc-client
    (at least) stops working. The two major problems  are the references
    to /usr/libexec/dcc (damons, placed in /usr/sbin by the Debian
    packages) and to /var/dcc (all sorts of things, placed under
    /var/lib/dcc).  A side effect of the latter is that dccifd_t and
    probably others need search on var_lib_t, through which it must pass
    to get to /var/lib/dcc.  Fixed the policy; will send upstream.
                                                             (Closes: #404309).
  * Bug fix: "selinux-policy-refpolicy-targeted: clamav policy forbids
    clamd_t search on /var/lib", thanks to Devin Carraway.  This is a
    simple one line change, and obviously an oversight; I think getting
    clamd to work is fairly important.                        (Closes: #404895).
  * Bug fix: "selinux-policy-refpolicy-targeted: Multiple problems with
    courier policy", thanks to Devin Carraway.  There is detailed
    information of the changes made in the bug report, and in the commit
    logs. Again, fixing courier daemons seems pretty important; SELinux
    tends to get used a lot on remote mail servers, and this fixes issues
    with the policy.                                          (Closes: #405103).

refpolicy (0.0.20061018-2) unstable; urgency=high

  * The This update enables MCS for targeted and strict, uses 1024
    categories (as Fedora uses - necessary for compatability). Please note
    that enabling MCS categories is required for compatibility with
    filesystems created on Fedora Core 5 and above, RHEL 5 and above, and
    CentOS 5 and above.  MCS categories is also a feature that we plan for
    all future releases of SE Linux and does not have a nice upgrade path
    - releasing etch without MCS will make things painful for SE Linux
    users on the upgrade to lenny. This feature has been extensively
    tested by Russel Coker and myself, and does not otherwise impact the
    install. 
  * Allow semanage to use the initrd file descriptor in targeted policy.
  * Fix a bug with restorecon.
  * Bug fix: "refpolicy: qemu should have execmem permissions", thanks to
    David Härdeman                                       (Closes: #402293).
