selinux-policy-targeted update is dangerous

[Dan Track]

Hi

I sympathise with those who have suffered with these updated selinux
policies. As soon as I updated mine my dhcpd server stopped working
and wouldn't bind to the interface.

I know this OT but thought I'd just mention the problems that SElinux
are causing.
