I see this error message on every el6 based system. For example: [root@x86-014 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.1 (Santiago) [root@x86-014 ~]# sestatus SELinux status: disabled [root@x86-014 ~]# yum update ... Updating : selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-126.el6_2.3.noarch 99/247 SELinux: Could not downgrade policy file /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.24, searching for an older version. SELinux: Could not open policy file <= /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.24: No such file or directory Best regards, Morten
