I updated my system few days ago and I'm currently not seeing further
updates available.
These are my packages:

[root at freeipa01 ~]# rpm -qa|grep -i selinux
selinux-policy-3.10.0-75.fc16.noarch
libselinux-2.1.6-5.fc16.x86_64
libselinux-python-2.1.6-5.fc16.x86_64
pki-selinux-9.0.17-1.fc16.noarch
libselinux-utils-2.1.6-5.fc16.x86_64
selinux-policy-targeted-3.10.0-75.fc16.noarch
freeipa-server-selinux-2.1.4-4.fc16.x86_64

Actually I haven't tried, but I'm sure to not encounter this problem in
that case.
As I wrote, I'm running in permissive mode so I only get warning on what it
would have been blocked by SELinux, not the effective block to the
execution.
My setup (apparently) completed correctly. I still have to check-on-the-job
:-)

Thanks
Marco
