FWIW, I'm trying the following, for the first time-  (this has nothing 
to do with my other selinux problems)

f7+updates install, selinux enabled

git livecd-tools
rawhide pykickstart srcrpm rebuilt (parse error otherwise on 
livecd-fedora-desktop.ks)

simple build of livecd-fedora-desktop as is (with cachedir)

It died on me once early, and then twice at the end with the output 
pasted below (haven't been able to get it to work).

I just got these (and others) in my setroubleshoot-  (note, the system 
was just installed prior to this, so it is unlikely something that I 
have misconfigured along the way)

avc: denied { write } for comm="ldconfig" dev=loop1 egid=0 euid=0 
exe="/sbin/ldconfig" exit=-13 fsgid=0 fsuid=0 gid=0 items=0 
name="ldconfig" pid=8518 scontext=user_u:system_r:ldconfig_t:s0 sgid=0 
subj=user_u:system_r:ldconfig_t:s0 suid=0 tclass=dir 
tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_t:s0 tty=pts4 uid=0

I figured I'd post all of this, since it seems to be the inverse of what 
was described.  I.e. this is building F8 on F7+updates (not building F7 
on F8).
