Comment 2 Dax Kelson 2004-04-15 21:47:08 UTC 
I can't install Rawhide 04/14 because of this error.

BTW, setools 1.3 just came out today.
Comment 3 J. Scott Amort 2004-04-16 07:12:46 UTC 
Same problem with 1.2.1-7.
Comment 4 J. Scott Amort 2004-04-20 07:35:31 UTC 
Same problem with 1.3-2.
Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2004-04-20 10:41:39 UTC 
Do you have a seuser.se or seuser.fc in your policy directory?

If you do remove them and rebuild policy, then try the install.

I don't have those files in the policy directory.  However, I tried a
yum update instead of the rpm -Uvh (or apt-get, which is how I was
obtaining the rpm), and it worked fine.  Not sure why this would make
a difference, but all is well now!
