I've put a new version of my packaging of selinux-small online at http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ . I now have it generate packages libselinux-dev (header files and library for compilation) and flask (policy files and utilities).

The flask package uses /etc/flask for the policy configuration files (let me know what you think about this - /usr/local/selinux/policy is unacceptable for Debian). Also let me know what you think of the package names.

For the moment if you want to experiment with Debian and SE Linux then I recommend using my libselinux-dev package for compilation, my flask package for the policy, and compiling the other things (sshd, login, etc) into /usr/local/bin etc.

Now it should be possible to boot a SE Linux kernel on a Debian machine using only Debian packages for the SE stuff! I haven't been able to test this as my test machine can't boot any kernel later than 2.4.14 without Oopsing on boot. Hopefully I'll be able to test on another machine soon.
