I'm still amazed that people shut off SELinux as one of their first steps on a #Fedora, #RHEL, or #CentOS system.

It's been a long, long time since I ran into a SELinux AVC. Even then, it was usually solved by flipping a boolean by running a command that appeared in the system journal.
I'll admit that SELinux before RHEL 6 was quite painful. It was difficult to find out why something wasn't working.

@major I sometimes wonder if this has become an urban legend. And that in reality SELinux is enabled without anyone noticing. I know it is next to impossible to get some reliable numbers on such things, but the "almost everyone switches off SELinux during install" might be a thing of the past too. (my servers and containers obviously run with SELinux enabled)

@major the official oracle database install guide (the licensed paywall doco) still recommends Turning it off during install…

@[email protected] @[email protected] every other stackoverflow/forum/issue seems to have a recommendation of "just disable it", and at least one response like " thank you that fixed my issue". and while I dont know any servers where its actually disabled, it really does feel like "the internet at large" just completely disables it whenever any there is any problem
