So the fix below is a solution to the first step of the problem.

 

Turns out, policygentool actually does need  polgen and not sepolgen.
And polgen is in no RPM's I could find in the CentOS 5 repos.

 

How I fixed this was replace the CentOS 5 file with the Fedora 8
policygentool file.  The Fedora 8 version actually does not import
polgen or sepolgen: it only uses standard Python libraries.

I just installed a fresh copy of Centos 5.1, yum upgraded all, and the
following error occurred with selinux-policy-devel-2.4.6-106.el5_1.3
rpm.

 

When I was trying to run policygentool, I was getting the following
error:

 

     Traceback (most recent call last):

        File "/usr/share/selinux/devel/policygentool", line 25, in ?

          Import polgen

 

ImportError: No module named polgen

 

Turns out, online 25 the following diff should be made:

 

- import polgen

+ import sepolgen

 

I assume the Python module changed names.

 

I uninstalled the RPM and reinstalled it to ensure I was getting the
same error, and I did.
