Please sync libselinux 2.0.65-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main).


Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:

Discussed with kees and agreed we want to rebase on the Debian packages
and work from there.

    * matchpathcon(8) man page update from Dan Walsh.
    * dlopen libsepol.so.1 rather than libsepol.so from Stephen Smalley.
    * Based on a suggestion from Ulrich Drepper, defer regex compilation
      until we have a stem match, by Stephen Smalley. 
      A further optimization would be to defer regex compilation until we
      have a complete match of the constant prefix of the regex - TBD. 
    * Regenerated Flask headers from policy.
    * AVC enforcing mode override patch from Eamon Walsh.
    * Aligned attributes in AVC netlink code from Eamon Walsh.

      Eamon Walsh. 
    * Fix segfault resulting from missing file_contexts file.
  * Bug fix: "libselinux: selinux_default_type_path implicitly converted
    to pointer", thanks to dann frazier . Closed by the new upstream
    release.                                                  (Closes: #465287).

libselinux (2.0.35-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
    * Make netlink socket close-on-exec to avoid descriptor leakage from
      Dan Walsh. 
    * Pass CFLAGS when using gcc for linking from Dennis Gilmore. 
    * Fix selabel option flag setting for 64-bit from Stephen Smalley.
    * Re-map a getxattr return value of 0 to a getfilecon return value of
      -1 with errno EOPNOTSUPP from Stephen Smalley. 
    * Fall back to the compat code for security_class_to_string and
      security_av_perm_to_string from Stephen Smalley. 
    * Fix swig binding for rpm_execcon from James Athey.
    * Fix file_contexts.homedirs path from Todd Miller.
    * Fix segfault resulting from uninitialized print-callback pointer.
    * Added x_contexts path function patch from Eamon Walsh.
    * Fix build for EMBEDDED=y from Yuichi Nakamura.
    * Fix markup problems in selinux man pages from Dan Walsh.
    * Updated av_permissions.h and flask.h to include new nscd permissions
      from Dan Walsh. 
    * Added swigify to top-level Makefile from Dan Walsh.
    * Fix for string_to_security_class segfault on x86_64 from Stephen
      Smalley.
    * Fix for getfilecon() for zero-length contexts from Stephen Smalley.
    * Refactored SWIG bindings from James Athey.
    * Labeling and callback interface patches from Eamon Walsh.
    * Class and permission mapping support patches from Eamon Walsh.
    * Object class discovery support patches from Chris PeBenito.
    * Refactoring and errno support in string representation code.
    * Merged patch to reduce size of libselinux and remove need for
      libsepol for embedded systems from Yuichi Nakamura. 
      This patch also turns the link-time dependency on libsepol into a
      runtime (dlopen) dependency even in the non-embedded case. 
    * Updated Lindent script and reindented two header files.
    * Merged additional swig python bindings from Dan Walsh.
  * When selinux_init_load_policy calls mount() it "knows" when selinux is
    not wanted due to being disabled or having no kernel device handle and
    sets *enforce to 0, but still allows the following fprintf to display
    a rather misleading error message. The solution was provided by  Kel
    Modderman, but has been refactored slightly.
                                             Closes: Bug#424011, Bug#447762
  * Reverted the fix for bug#448008 fixed in an NMU, and applied a
    different fix for the issue.  Thanks for the NMU, Clint Adams.
