SElinux on Debian Jessie missing default policy

  • 772

I want to enable SElinux on Debian Jessie. In order to do this, I followed the guide on https://wiki.debian.org/SELinux/Setup. However, when I run the apt-get command, the selinux-policy-default package appears to be missing.

Package selinux-policy-default is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

Am I doing something wrong or is this a problem with Debian?

    selinux-policy-default was removed out of Debian Jessie RC due to Bugs, see:

    https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2015/04/msg00207.html

    Unfortunately they won't add it again after removing bugs in the future:
