Admittedly however it is not always the correct solution. Deny rules were added to achieve two main goals, 1. enabling profiles to remember what has been denied in the past so profiling tools doesn't constantly reprompt. 2. quiet known rejects so they don't clutter up the logs Goal 1. means you wouldn't normally get prompted for these rejects, as logprof/genprof use the deny rules to screen the logs so you don't get prompted for these entries. This is particularly nice with logprof as the log often contains entries from when the profile was created. The problems I see with the current behavior is that, Goal 2 is applied in complain mode, logprof/genprof are missing the ability to ignore deny rules so that they can be reevaluated, and that there is currently no way to turn off deny rules in complain mode (which may be needed by genprof). To better establish what needs to be done to refine/fix this behavior can you provide some more details on how you believe this should work? I don't see just turning off deny rules and reprompting for everything as a practical solution as Goal 1 was a highly requested behavior. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

However, the fix brought a small side effect on logging - I opened bug 426159 for this. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
