[ale] SELinux & abrtd

[Jim Kinney]

for that matter you can run windows but you wouldn't want to.

SELinux is a good thing. It should be used. When there are bugs they should
be reported. With a basic target policy it "JustWorks" 99+% of the time.
That other tiny fraction is not a show stopper 99.9+% of the time.

So a bit of policy tweaks (the gui tool in Fedora actually will tell you the
command to run to allow the blocked process) are a good thing to learn
about.
