-A relatively modern system (e.g., Fedora Core 3/4 or RHEL 4) should easily support refpolicy. The only likely upgrade is a new version of checkpolicy (Dan Walsh often has newer checkpolicy rpms at <A href="ftp://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/Fedora/">ftp://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/Fedora/</A>).

<h2>Policy Conversion</h2>
<p>
This phase of reference policy development involves the conversion of policies
<h2>Testing Status</h2>
<p>
-Reference policy is now included in the Fedora development repositories
-(Rawhide) in the targeted and MLS policies. These are the easiest way to test
-Reference Policy. They should be included in Fedora, beginning with Core 5
-test 2.
+Reference policy is now included in the Fedora Core 5 distribution.
</p>
<h1>Switching to Targeted Reference Policy</h1>
<p>
- The targeted policy is now available on Fedora systems in the
- development repositories (Rawhide), as selinux-policy-targeted 2.*.
+ The targeted policy is now available on Fedora Core 5 systems, as selinux-policy-targeted 2.*.
If you are using Rawhide, simply update your policy using yum.
This guide will walk you through switching to the targeted reference
policy on a Fedora system not using these repositories.
