      Description

      The customer is looking for an official statement for which reason we do not have the package `libselinux-python` available on our repositories for python 3.8.

       

      I'm still wondering why Red Hat cannot release the proper SELinux bindings for the actual Python 3.8 interpreter - this would completely avoid the issue we are facing.
      Quite interested in knowing why these updated bindings cannot be provided.

      Steps to Reproduce

      I am not able to reproduce the customer's issue.

      Actual Behavior

      The Jobs running on some servers fail due to the selinux issue.

      Expected Behavior

      With the libselinux-python for python 3.8 installed will allow customer to run the jobs smothly.
