I remember reading something quite a long time ago. IIRC it was an 
on-going discussion between the devs of Ubuntu or Debian (don't remember 
which), they were discussing the relative merits of SELinux and 
AppArmor, saying that both had their problems and they would like to 
find a more comprehensive solution before integrating extra security 
precautions like SE or AppArmor... Fedora kept plugging away at SELinux 
and I think that it's now doing a decent job, and it's easy enough to 
alter the policy or turn it off completely (to aid in trouble-shooting).
