ok accepted, it will work fine - yum needs this to work and it does work
fine either with or without selinux, but its easy for people new to
selinux to write policy that can kick their own butt - and in most
cases, blame everyone/ everything else.

there isnt enough info in there to predict what is going on - but a
driveby python or rpm hackerage seems to be to blame. Maybe thats how
they manage packages on FreeBSD :)
