+	  libsemanage is the policy management library. It uses
+	  libsepol for binary policy manipulation and libselinux for
+	  interacting with the SELinux system. It also exec's helper

+	  setfiles from policycoreutils) presently, although this may
+	  change at least for the bootstrapping case (for rpm).
