Re: using an interface defined in another loaded module

Dear Gary,

Thanks a zillion times for your help, the building of the policy works fine
now that I have copied the .if file of the submodule to the directory you
mentioned!
I did not know I was reqired to copy the module's interface file to
SELinux's include dirs to make it available for other modules to use.

BTW, I was building my module from within my "policy builder and installer"
script using the "traditional" way of:
# make -f /usr/share/selinux/devel/Makefile A.pp

Now the build process works, thanks to your suggestion!

Best Regards,
János
